The business of Generals taking jobs with military contractors is a difficult one. Where the heck else are they supposed to work?

Ever tried the "The military gave me transferable skills" argument in a job application recently? I have - gets you nowhere, or worse.

Equally, we don't want second-rate equipment because some General wants a cushy paycheck for taking overseas jollies twice a month.

The mere fact that lots of Generals take contractor jobs is just that. A fact, not evidence of corruption.
