Editor's note:  This may be the suspicious death of all time.  I will be looking for clues over the next few days.  Those of you, you know who you are, get me what I need to make this right. g
UpdateCryptogon reports Mitre Corp won't say what Mr. Wheeler was doing there. He is described as a "consultant."
Newark police have identified the body discovered on New Year's Eve at the Cherry Island Landfill as 66-year-old John P. Wheeler of New Castle.
 DID JOHN WHEELER KNOW TOO MUCH?
http://bobmccarty.com/2011/01/04/did-john-wheeler-iii-know-too-much/
Wheeler, who lived part time in Old New Castle, worked as a defense consultant and had a long and decorated military career that involved working 
  in the Reagan and George W. Bush administrations.
Wheeler also served as chairman of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, which built the wall in Washington, D.C.

His death has been ruled a homicide. 

Newark police have had a crime scene unit at Wheeler's home at 108 West Third St. in Old New Castle all day today, with crime-scene tape roping off the prominent three-story brick home with black shutters. 

Friends and neighbors were shocked to learn Wheeler had been murdered.
"This is just not the kind of guy who gets murdered," said Bayard Marin, a Wilmingtonattorney who represented Wheeler. "This is not the kind of guy you find in a landfill."
Wheeler worked in Washington, D.C. and investigators have determined he was on an Amtrak train from Washington to Wilmington on Tuesday, said Newark police Lt. Mark Farrall.

"The last place they can put him is getting off the Amtrak train in Wilmington," Farrall said.
The MITRE Corporationis described on its website    http://www.mitre.org/  as a "trusted adviser to the U.S. military, MITRE's Defense International Operations program also develops command and control and engineering solutions for NATO members and other U.S. allies."

John Wheeler is a defense consultant. He served as the Special Assistant to the Secretary of the Air Force, Washington, D.C. from 2005-2008, when he became the Special Assistant to the Acting Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Installations, Logistics and Environment.

He was also on the Red Integrated Strategic Operational Plan Team to test the Single Integrated Operational Plan. His career combines federal service and starting up, growing and turning around companies and charities. He was Secretary, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, on the team that worked major insider trader investigations, and consultant to the acting Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics regarding tankers and other issues.
For President Reagan, he created the Vietnam Veterans Leadership Program, linking successful veterans with veterans needing jobs. For President G.H.W. Bush, he created the Earth Conservation Corps for at-risk youth.

Citation for Air Force Exceptional Civilian Service Award, 2008:
CITATION
Mr. John P. Wheeler distinguished himself by exceptionally meritorious service to the United States as the Special Assistant to the Secretary of the Air Force, the Pentagon, Washington, District of Columbia, from 3 November 2005 to 20 June 2008. During this period, Mr. Wheeler’s unwavering integrity, devotion to duty and steadfast leadership led to a number of successful initiatives across the Air Force.
Grasping the growing vulnerability of our weapon systems to Cyber intrusions, he worked tirelessly to drive the activation of Air Force Cyber Command. His visionary efforts were instrumental in the creation of the Cyber Research Center at the Air Force Institute of Technology; the first two graduates of the United States Air Force Academy to enter the Air Force Institute of Technology Cyber Master’s Program; the stand-up of the Air Force Cyber School; and an increased emphasis on Air Force recruitment efforts for officers and enlisted for Cyber careers.
His seasoned experience and knowledge proved invaluable as he helped formulate advice on initiatives such as Joint Basing, Recapitalization, ROVER precision strike data for Army and Marine troops, Acquisition, and a myriad of legislative initiatives facing the Air Force.
His day-to-day interactions with the Office of the Secretary of Defense enhanced relations and ensured streamlined timely responses. The singularly distinctive accomplishments of Mr. Wheeler in the dedication of service to his Country reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Air Force.
