More arrogant bureaucratic bean counters making decisions on things they know nothing about.
Why does the Army and Marines not have a voice in the support they need?
Too much focus on toys and not enough on ability...

Close,but no cigar. These decisions are NOT made by people like pilots or airwing commanders. They are usually made by General Officers who are nearing retirement,and looking for a "soft landing" on a Corporate Board,where they can use their military contacts to get advantages on contracts.
