"The Government requires the Armed Forces to implement the following....."

A frequent directive from Monastery of Definance beancounters - and what happens?

The RAF rushes round making even bigger cuts and smiles at the minister like a sycophantic lapdog.

The Army announces that yes, changes will be made. One or two token gestures are made with 'more to come'..

The Navy mutters something in fluent Jackspeak and does.....nothing.

Good for the Navy! But if it all turns purple, which culture would predominate?
