As Ex-services I would just like to amplify the above post...
All 3 services contribute, what I think needs to happen is that things such as 'smart' procurement actually becomes smart and not remain the farce it is, with over budget, over deadline equipment.
The people on the ground should be given far better support by the civil servants that are polishing the a
e of their trousers at a desk, going home every night and weekend to the family.
