Paging inventory control ...


You know, cuts to the military budget have just gone too far when you don't have proper inventory control. It just looks so unprofessional when you receive a simple order for helicopter batteries, and you mistakenly send nose cone fuses for intercontinental ballistic missiles instead.

It's made even worse when the recipient of said missle parts has been having trouble with a particularly testy neighbor ... and when the recipient itself has to notify you -- two years later -- of the mistake because you obviously didn't notice any nose cone fuses for intercontinental ballistic missles missing from your inventory.

Oops.
