This whole thing is an object lesson in why we shouldn't have streamlined and outsourced the military as much as we did. It used to be that the "undesireables" in the service got shunted off to nasty jobs like KP, et cetera while they served out the rest of their enlistments. In times of crisis, they could still be called on to fight. Now, the jobs people in the military wouldn't want to do have been turned over to civilian contractors, and the "undesireables" separated from the service.

We shouldn't have skimped on national defense.
