This one sentence says it all - any command with MORE contractors than officers and soliders "smells" of some private enterprise's cash cow.Get our troops out of Iraq and AfganistanIt's a start in the right direction. There are way too many private contractors and they are a very real threat to the solvency of the military budget. They low ball the quotes to latch onto the pentagon's teet and gradually up the bill. Many of these services were once performed by modestly paid military personnel which got the work done and saved the tax payers billions. The explosion in these outside vendors is just another example of the systemic growth of the military-industrial complex that Eisenhower warned us about. All these companies hire lobbyist to bribe and pressure congressional members to keep increasing the spending and hiring more vendors. These vendors should be cut by half and replaced with military personnel recruited fro9m the millions of unemployed young people in our country.
