Not uncommon. I know of companies in the transportation industry that contract through the DoD and hire ex-DoD people specifically for the DoD contracts. They know how to speak the language and get deals done. Edit: To clarify, most of these contracts, you have to bid for. But if you don't know how to speak DoD, you're going to have a much harder time.
