Good grief! What is the reason that there are that many more desk jockeys than actual soldiers....???

We have 150,000 more civilians in DOD than soldiers in our army

Like you I am skeptical of the wisdom, but here it is.

It takes more than soldiers to protect America

The Department of Defense employs more than 700,000 civilians in an array of critical positions worldwide, with opportunities for people from all walks of life. If a competitive salary, great benefits, unsurpassed training, and the pride of defending our nation interests you, then find your future with us.
