Echelons Above Reality
Definition
Higher headquarters, where decisions are made by people who haven't been to the field in years. Their plans look great on PowerPoint and terrible in execution. This is by design, apparently.
Example Usage
"This plan came from echelons above reality. Someone who's never worn body armor decided we should ruck 20 miles in August."
