Military Spending and Technological Development

While we are about to dig into the development of the executive branch, I thought it might be interesting to look at the role military has had in developing and promoting recent technologies.

- The Computer History Museum.
- ENIAC.
- The History of the Internet.

The military, obviously, puts a premium on speedy, accurate information and analysis. They had a hand in early development of the telegraph, radio, radar and television as well.
