DoD's Electromagnetic Spectrum Strategy: The military industrial partnership realised

Dwight Eisenhower once warned about the dangers of a future US military/industrial complex. To quote:

I also examined this in my thesis, how the development of the IEEE c95.1 RF standard was very much a military/ industry joint effort.

Reading the below DoD press release from Feb 2014 its obvious Eisenhower’s words of warning have turned out to be all too true.
