>But didn't DoD express interest in dropping TCP/IP in favor of OSI on the idea
                                    ^^^^^^^^^

Well, yes, except that "dropping" is far too strong a word.  Some speculate
that the DoD will spearhead the gradual conversion to OSI.  One interesting
wrinkle is that perhaps OSI is all ready too slow, and so will get passed
over for something faster, soon.
