#2 /\ That sounds like it's right out of a leadership development course, which means that, try as they might, the folks at Fort Leavenworth (for the Army) can cite doctrine all day every day, but the politics of the day or just having a shitty leader can render all of that useless.

#3 /\ ....many military-intelligence bureaucracies lack.

Clem nails it. Military 'doctrine' gives scant little consideration to the realities of Foggy Bottom and Country Team along with their political and territorial limitations. Once the military intelligence leader discovers his role is purely notional, or squad level tactical, he quickly defaults to discovering his next assignment and promotion. Violating the covenants of the national intelligence structure can find one quickly bound for Flynnladia.
