OOPSIE!! US Military accidentally ships live anthrax cultures

Yep. the Chief of Staff of the Air Force (CSAF) was relieved and retired early after the USAF accidentally flew a nuke from North Dakota to Louisiana. There were other reasons for the relief, but this was the spectacular one.
I'd guess that there are some Army folks who need to start filling out resumes.
Considering the layers of bureaucratic approval it takes just to buy toilet paper for the government, it's amazing something like this can happen. Surely making government just a little bit bigger can fix this.
I remember a MASH episode in which Trapper and Hawkeye were trying to get the Army to give an incubator to the 4077th. The supply officer in Seoul aid no, even though there were three of them on the shelf behind him. "If I give you one, then I'll only have two," was his answer.
But if the 4077th wanted a pizza oven, they could use the form for ordering machine guns and strike out "machine gun" and write in "pizza oven."
Sadly close to the truth.
I bet it is easier to mail anthrax across the country than it is to buy toilet paper.
