I'd have to ask the purpose of the web site?  If it's for the 
general public or you're bond legally to provide public access then 
reverse look-ups are a bit silly but if the web site is primarily 
for the DOD, and your DOD partners are expected to have reverse DNS 
set up properly, with only peripheral access by the public then 
reverse look-ups may not be a bad idea.
