Please don't tar the Air Force.  E.g. some of the strongest Ada
proponents in the world work and the US Air Force Academy.  They are
the authors of AdaGIDE the .NET port, and other excellent work.  Many,
many Air Force personnel are smart on Ada.  I'm sure they'd be appalled
by the above.

Sorry I can't say the same for political appointees over whom serving
Air Force military personnel have no influence. In fact, the
Constitution dictates rather the reverse...
