The former is the ability to field sufficient formation to meet all the mission requirements it has, the latter reflects the reality of both technical fields and the emotional maturity to deal with people on and around the battlefield. Any organization that requires such a large number of qualified people is going to have problems, particularly when it competes on a government budget.
Can we say that the investment in technology and equipment hurt our ability to invest in people?
