The inspector general said having security supervisors know about a pending mock attack would have revealed important details that would tip off the guards about what methods to help neutralize the assault.

"It's blatant cheating," said Peter Stockton of the Project on Government Oversight, a Washington-based watchdog group. "It doesn't say much for the integrity of the guard forces and some managers who knew this kind of thing was going on."

The department's inspector general, Gregory H. Friedman, issued a report concluding the June drills at the Y-12 nuclear facility were "tainted and unreliable" because two guard supervisors from Wackenhut Corp. were allowed to see computer simulations one day before the attacks.
