Warrior Right To Repair Military Program

[00:00:00]Okay, here's your daily reminder that the military can be both deadly and unbelievably stupid at the same time.

[00:00:08]So, Stars and Stripes had the story today that there's a couple of senators pushing this warrior right to repair act because troops and military maintenance units don't always have access to the stuff they need to actually fix their own equipment. I had no idea this is going on. Think about how insane that is. We trust service members with rifles, missiles, tanks, classified information, national defense secrets, and yet when something breaks, they might still be waiting on a contractor some sort of proprietary manual or some repair restriction that was written by a defense company lawyer with soft hands and no military experience. This is crazy. One example, one example, said the Navy had to spend thousands of dollars to fly in a contractor from King, Norway to change two fuses. That's right, two fuses. The Air Force paid $900 per page for maintenance manual updates. This is wildly unacceptable.

[00:01:12]Everybody wonders why defense spending is out of control. It's because of crap like this. And as a retiree, as a now farmer dude and a taxpayer, okay, wildly unacceptable. This is How can this happen?

[00:01:27]How can this happen? If you have an example of this, uh please share it in the comments section. Share this with somebody that you know in the maintenance world. Tell me this isn't actually happening because this is absolutely insane.
