I was in the Navy well before NMCI, saw it come in, left for a while (med school), then came back just in time to see it go. I'm looking forward to it being gone. That said, I have found non-IT military folk at all ranks daily making wildly inaccurate statements about NMCI policy and then forming their own policies based on their own statements. The contracts are available online with about 5 minutes of searching, and they're remarkably readable.
I have also seen a small (frigate) shipboard IT organization before NMCI essentially go belly-up when an electrical accident (because, you know, it's a freaking warship underway, not a server farm in Sheboigan) cooked the server and there were no functional backups. Managing your own IT in a small organization can be a major crap shoot.
