Subject: Intelligence.
"One refusing to outlay a hundred pieces of gold and thereby does not know the enemy's situation is the height of inhumanity. This one is not the general of the people, a help to the ruler, or the master of victory. What enables the enlightened rulers and good generals to conquer the enemy at every move and achieve extraordinary success is foreknowledge. Foreknowledge cannot be elicited from ghosts and spirits; it cannot be inferred from comparison of previous events, or from the calculations of the heavens, but must be obtained from people who have knowledge of the enemy's situation." (Sun Tzu) We can all be assured US spending on intelligence (and not on sheer military strength of bombs and planes) will be increased back to at least previous levels. It's unfortunate that organizations normally take notice and learn only after great tragedies.
