You bring up an issue implicitly: Can not a domain be registered
multiply?  Even if you are later forced by policy to use the domain
nprdc.navy.mil, couldn't you easily convert the domain nprdc.mil by
maintaining it in parallel for a time as an identical domain?  In
other words, couldn't you go ahead without fear of penalty, knowing
that you will be able to convert at a later date if need be?
