Call me cynical, but the country might be slightly better served if they made the defence secretary go through the same course + basic infinatry and spending at least six weeks on any of the plastic rowing boats that the navy have left before they took the job for real.

Maybe of course that thought should also be extended to the civil servants, bean counters & other whitehall remoras before they took the reins as well.

Maybe then they'd actually be a bunch of folk making critical decisions who all actually had an idea about the sharp end of the job........
