U.S. Air Force Major Dan Ward works at the Air Force Research Laboratory, in Rome, New York, and Major Chris Quaid at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency in Bethesda, Maryland.
Their jointly written article was recently published in
Defense Acquisition, Technology & Logistics. The article is titled
"Everything We Need To Know About Program Management, We Learned From Punk Rock".

Punk rock is loud and in-your-face, un-apologetic and fearless. We need more of that atitude around here.

Punks may not be pretty and their lyrics may not be coherent to the casual listener, but they have integrity and deep understanding of what the Air Force calls "service before self". Punk's ideological stand against the pursuit of illicit personal gain is virtually identical to the Air Force's second Core Value. It is the mission that matters, whether that mission is music or missiles. It's about service, not about your own interests.

So, close your eyes, forget yourself and feel the beat move you along.
