You left out one of the interesting pieces of historical trivia
about the Pentagon: what major project did the general in charge
go on to after finishing Pentagon planning?  The Manhattan Project.
Both were under the direction of Leslie Groves.  Groves was not
happy about getting yet another engineering project -- he wanted
a combat assignment.
