PowerPoint Ranger
n.—Gloss: a derogatory term for a military bureaucrat or policy wonk. «As anyone who has ever worked in or near it can attest, the DoD is run by what I like to call Powerpoint Rangers: guys like Thomas Barnett, who latch onto a big, simple idea, attach pretty animations and maps, and proclaim themselves Grand Strategists.» —“Three Cups of Tea, by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin” by Joshua Foust Registan.net Dec. 17, 2007.
