Piss-Poor Editing That Never Should've Happened

Seriously. Look, I'm sure that Steve Szkotak is a perfectly good journalist, but we're talking about a major gaffe here that never should've escaped his word processor, never mind slipping past the editor.

according to Col. Daniel T. Williams, a spokesman for the Army's Document and Training Command

"Document and Training Command"? Really?

Look, dude, it's easy - damn easy - to find the right answer. TRADOC website

Or, maybe, you could ASK THE GUY FROM WHOM THE STATEMENT CAME FOR THE EXACT NAME OF THE ORGANIZATION FOR WHICH HE WORKS...

That's not ignorance - I don't expect most journalists to have the right answers about the military like this - but it's worse. It's laziness. And that should be hammered.
