Waste and wasteful cataloging in military services
A subcommittee report criticizes repeated cataloging efforts across Army, Navy, and Air Force dating to 1947, noting hundreds of millions spent on compiling catalogs while many items lack names. It cites a single standardized catalog as a possible remedy but finds progress slow and misaligned with actual needs. The testimony urges Congress to curb spending, imitate Hoover's wartime guidance, and question ongoing Korea era policy and funding.
