I must agree with Fred on this.  The stated report is outdated and at this 
point irrelevant.  The whole aspect of the exercise was to find out just 
where the military was at in the understanding of computer intrusions and 
the reporting of incidents.  It gave us the baseline that rendered the 
'kick-in-the-pants' needed to generate the support and funding necessary 
for the creation of such agencies as the AFCERT (Air Force Computer 
Emergency Response Team) and sister orgs to educate, respond, analyze, 
test, and keep higher echelons informed on the health of the military 
information systems. 

Since that time, the military (as well as many other government agencies) 
have made great strides in the understanding of attacks, the recognition 
of attacks, the defense of attacks, and the investigation and prosecution 
of attacks.

As far as the other events listed, it pretty much boils down to the dire 
need for more information security specialists out in the real world.

Just my $.02.
