As I mentioned in an earlier post.
Someone is FAR to enamored with "push button" warfare.
I really don't expect many of the recent changes to last when the current Commandant retires/is replaced.

I'm sure all this gee-wiz tech stuff is very popular with the know-nothing bureaucrats currently in charge in Disneyland East (i.e. Washington D.C.). Besides, think of all the money the contractors will make ... and donate to our (re)election campaign!
