the military and google are very different organizations with different goals, so it's unlikely they will be run the same
a perfect team in the military will not look like a perfect team at google.
both organizations will wisely punt to other organizations when they come up against a challenge outside of their domains of expertise.
for example: the military does not design and build its own aircraft/weapons/tanks, nor does google engineer and build its datacenters
