Of course it is, the DOD already can't afford the impending retirement bubble they already owe. Plus by turning over people more often you keep the average age/rank/longevity down... thus reducing your average pay per person. This is obviously incredibly short sighted for reasons we all understand, and will likely blow up in their faces.
