Obviously they need a better spreadsheet app
For 3.5 years....I worked in a Pentagon agency and was the credit card guy, and I worked closely with the budget gal of the organization.
Down to the last nickel, I could tell you all of the actions of the unit’s credit card and how it was spent. The budget gal could tell you down to the last nickel how the travel budget was spent, on the 150-odd authorized trips by unit people over the year.
So, I don’t really buy any of this “we don’t know garbage”. I do admit, in the technology development area....which is always classified and rarely controlled....there might be issues. But the other 90-percent of the military...people know what cash existed and how it was spent. Course, you probably don’t want to know that the Army bought 300 flag-poles in 2015, or bought 17,000 hammers.
