Air Force In The Army

Air Force fills out Army ranks in Iraq - Yahoo! News: "...The training range is Army, as is the duty itself — one of the most dangerous in
Iraq these days. But the young men and women clad in camouflage and helmets training to run and protect convoys are not Army; they're Air Force..."

So the Air Force spends, say, $100,000 to train a fuels technician on the science of refueling its planes, and that technician ends up driving a truck in Iraq? 1) Isn't the government breaking its contract with that airman? 2) Isn't that a waste of tax money? (Above and beyond the waste of the entire war.)
