You cannot fix problems on this scale with moderation or half-measures. You must smash the system and restart. Get rid of Windows, reset the entire chain by moving to Chromebooks. Schools have proven this truth: the only way to deploy to large numbers of transient and unsophisticated users is to go thin-client. That will force the DOD to build scalable networked services. Most of the time, using off-the-shelf services is fine. If DOD can be in AWS then they can also be in GSuite. Everyone will have excuses why everything in .mil needs to be custom or done to some twisted set of DOD requirements, or why Windows is essential. That's fine, the problems will never go away It would not surprise me to learn that NKorea with its in-house linux is able to run IT better than DOD.
