Senior Mil types do seem to have some sort of problem with Proper management of assets and manpower,
Small example, friend of mine is a Col in the Maroon berry brigade, we were having a pint one day talking about the business I was in(transport) I explained that we could accept a load for delivery from the North West of the UK to any part of the EU continent and have it delivered within 24 hours,
Very seriously he told me that would take weeks to achieve, and that would be just the planning, if it was to move any of his regiments assets.
Well if that is the case, these boys at the top of the Mil tree need a swift dose of business in Civvie street!!
