Bad Day at the Pentagon? It Could be Worse.

If he thinks things at MoD are desperate now, he should take a gander at DND; the same sort of thing has been in full swing there since at least the 70's, if not the late '60's. And oooh, did things get interesting.

Trust me. It gets worse.

Edited to Add:

Does MoD have a civilian at each hierarchical level starting at Director/LtCol. level, with the civilian having authority over his military counterpart, yet?
