I seem to recall it began in the late 80's with a paper put out by some officers on staff at the Academy.
Then there were 1 or 2 papers written by officers in ACSC and War College that addressed it in the 90's
I'm sure that Kit did address it: after 20 years of saying "hiring will pick up soon", it finally happened. I guess he was right.
