You guys will be thrilled to know that Obama deployed the Navy's organizational and engineering abilities to the oil spill back in April.
As detailed on...the Navy's website:

Also, interesting quote from the Pentagon:
"Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell said the military is assessing how it might help and what resources could be deployed. He did not say how long that might take.
“There is a full-blown effort within this department to try to find the kinds of things that could be helpful,” Morrell said.
He said the federal response is far wider than the Pentagon and should involve a close partnership with the energy industry. For example, he said, industrial research on submersible vehicles that can operate at great depth outpaces the military’s."
Let me know the next complaint you can think up.
