The once a year qualify for your personal weapons was also a rather stupid idea, once a quarter would have been a lot better, but that would never fly.
It always amazes that the military, an organization that exisits for only one purpose, always seems to never have the money to do anything that would improve its war fighting capability...
Too many shell games being played with funds being diverted for the latest R&D, for that new construction in a certain congressman's district, that new, totally useless uniform change...you know, life as usual in Wonderland on the Potomac!
