We used to do rehab work on two military bases. The waste was incredible. One building we worked on was the rec hall. At one time it had an Olympic size swimming pool. They installed a new boiler to heat the pool. They tested the new boiler before paying the contractor. Then they drained the pool and filled it in with Jeep engines, huge spools of copper wire, and pretty much anything you'd find on a military base. They finished filling in the pool with gravel then installed a running track over it.
The work we and other contractors did on that building cost about $400K (not counting the indoor track).....and the building was scheduled for demo before any of that work was put up for bid. That was nearly 30 years ago when 400K was a lot of money.
There was plenty of money for rehabbing buildings but the military couldn't get money for new buildings.
