Other than they are privy to government secrets they aren't anymore "the military" in this context than say, airlines or aircraft manufacturers are the Federal Aviation Administration.
Also not sure how U.S. defense contractors are so different from any other country.
- JohnFen 3y ago> they aren't anymore "the military" in this context There is a bit of a difference in that the US military seems to avoid taking much responsibility for what their contractors do. I was pushing back on the notion that just because a military contractor does it, the military has no responsibility for it. > Also not sure how U.S. defense contractors are so different from any other country. I only specified US because I'm in the US and that's what I'm most familiar with. I often get scolded by international readers when I leave that qualifier out, so I try to remember to include it. I was not saying that any other nation is different. I was making no comment on any other nation.
