Tax day ---  April 15 ----- was looming when an elderly woman showed up at my desk at the IRS.  She said she required a thick stack of tax forms.  “Why so many?” I asked.  “My son is stationed overseas,” she said.  “He asked me to pick up forms for the soldiers on the base.”  “You shouldn’t have to do this,” I told her.  “It’s the base commander’s job to make sure that his troops have access to the forms they need.”  “I know,” said the woman.   “I’m the base commander’s mother.”

Speaking for USAF, it was JAGs responsibility (in the Legal Assistance program) to have all forms, instructions, and to train a few people in each base squadron.  Big PITA every year.  Doing your own taxes is bad enough.  Course the internet has helped greatly.
