The answer is always "more money." Replace the word "Army" with any Fed.gov agency or department, and you describe the present state of US Federal Government.
The military is horrible in the way they can't audit where the money goes. A bit O/T, but at the ripe old age of 25, I was the S-4 (Supply Officer) of my Battalion in Germany: 6/56 ADA, motto "Night Hides Not". Rarely have I been so perfectly ensconced in a job. I had been in the battalion for 3+ years, and my bachelors degree was Public Accounting, nearly 40 semester hours. What made my education unique was the professor never used numbers. It taught us to dwell on the underlying theory, not whether the numbers balanced. I'm still drawing on that experience today. Nearly 70, I'm working in the Tax Department of a large real estate company in Dallas.
As a First LT, I was advising field grade officers on what they could, and could not, do in budgetary matters. My job was easy, basically keep track of seven "checking accounts" on how our funds were spent.
It was a heady role, as I was also designated to negotiate the Interservice Support Agreement at Spangdahlem AB.
When I returned to Fort Bliss, my Battalion Cdr met up with me, offering an Operations Officer job to me, which I immediately accepted. Worked for him another glorious 18 months.
Apologies for going O/T, but I'm one of many here at FR who see the fiscal train wreck coming.
