There were plenty of times over the last 20 years where we had more military contractors than we had US soldiers. The worst was during the Obama years. He ramped up spending and it was more $ than the Afghanistan country could hold for infrastructure etc, so it trickled over to funding more contractors. I have a good interview about it I'll share when I get a chance.
