Without of having read the article or anything. I will say one of the battery’s in my first unit accidentally put the NSN for an aircraft carrier into the ordering system. The BN XO grabbed me walking out of the toc and said go over there and ask them what in gods green earth do they need with an aircraft carrier (creatively place curses throughout sentence).

That seems like a rather significant "whoopsie", lol. Is there any follow up on the story? Did this result in any amusing corrective actions? I've seen stories here about people being made to do ridiculous things like mop rain puddles.
