The DoD is looking at Agile development techniques more seriously lately. The "Command and Control" Gets Agile explores recent developments. Like any large organization, becoming agile is not just an initiative but a fundamental cultural and organizational change. At least this is acknowledged in 'The Agility Imperative' and related topical discussions taking place within the C2 circles.
What is not surprising is the how open source technology has been successful in non-DoD organizations as stated in "Agile can help DoD save its projects". A consistent organizational pattern emerges where agility is successful on a limited scope implementation but not on a larger enterprise level. So the on going question is, how to implement agility into the existing bureaucracy? Yet another viewpoint is described in "Agile and the DoD" whitepaper. Time will tell on this one.
