It took over thirteen years, despite having ten academies, to finally get a Logistics/Ground Combat scientist on board with the team. However he couldn't be assigned immediately as there was a big rush on for another research project tying up all the labs. One month before that project ended I get the message: "Scientist Randall Hemingway has developed a severe medical problem that has forced him to retire." Sure enough, when I looked, that was the name of my one and only, long awaited, Logistics/Ground Combat scientist... woe is me!
Despite being a stumbling block in my game, it is pretty cool that things like that can not only happen, but do, and have a real impact on things. Now if I can just resist the urge to go all SM on Aurora and shanghai the Navy's best logistics expert into the science department....
