LB & Boss,
You are right, I did generalise a bit too much in my last comment and have met many good hardworking civil servants. My father was one. My musings are focussed on 5 and 6 floor MOD when I served there. I well recall being told "What you are saying is military judgement, and military judgement counts for nothing".
