You mentioned “Clean the Pentagon and the rest of the military of civilian workers.” Remember that most of those civilian workers will have to be replaced with active duty military personnel to do the jobs. The growth of civilians in the DoD was meant as a way to let the active duty military focus its manpower on the combat mission, not working daily administrative stuff in the Pentagon and other military bases. Also, it means that contractors are hired to work in the mess halls as KPs instead of detailing soldiers to do that work every day.

Peeling potatoes and mopping mess hall floors is a great way to build character. Half of the pentagon personnel are civilians who couldn’t care a twit for military preparedness or America. Just give them an Obozo and they’re happy until retirement.
