While this brings to mind that scene [1] from Steve Carrel's "Space Force" show, you can't blame the scorpion for stinging you if you give him a ride on your back. The dependency on (pretty much) a single vendor across the entire military organization is such a monumental single point of failure, I can't imagine what level of obtuse bureaucracy led them there. It seems self-inflicted at best; if it wasn't MS it would've been some other corp. IMO the military (especially given their incredible size and access to resources) should have 100% rolled their own IT solutions from first principles, and built upon that. 1: [VIDEO]
