Kenneth Miller resigned from his post as a top Air Force acquisition official Monday, according to various news reports. Miller, who was one of the service’s key individuals in the KC-X tanker program, had earlier said he would leave following the resignation of Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne.

Miller certainly briefed lawmakers on the program’s status.
