Thank you very much.
I would also like to ask a question about the definitions of direct and indirect costs. I too was surprised to hear that the combat engineers, among others, are in the indirect costs category.
Can you tell me what a direct cost is? I believe direct costs are those that don't produce a military effect.
You've previously made comparisons with other countries, and I'd like to know whether they use the same definitions. My understanding is that Canada uses the same definition as the United States. Do other countries use the same definitions of direct and indirect costs?
