You are an Army employee on government travel, attending a conference in your official capacity. Defense contractor XYZ has offered you complimentary attendance at an event it is sponsoring at the end of the day in a restaurant down the street from where you are attending the conference. The admission fee for other attendees at this XYZ-sponsored event is $25. You decide that it would be nice to attend, mingle, and talk about what you are working on in a relaxed atmosphere with 50 people, similarly invited by Defense contractor XYZ, from industry, state and local governments, and the media. May you accept this gift? A. Since the gift is of limited value, you graciously accept it. B. Everyone else from DoD appears to be accepting the gift of free attendance, so you do so as well. C. You accept the gift after consulting with your supervisor, who determines, in writing, that this event is a widely-attended gathering and that there is an agency interest in your attending. D. You decide the ethics rules prohibit you from accepting this gift and so you decline the invitation.
