from 2020-04-20T04:22:14

:: ::

Join retired Marine Colonel Andy Milburn as we discuss his concerns about the increasingly partisan nature of the U.S. military, the risks this poses for professionalism, and his career as a member of the special forces community.


Col. Milburn enlisted as a private in the U.S. Marine Corps immediately following graduation from law school. A first-generation immigrant, Andy then commissioned as an officer and rose through the ranks before retiring as a colonel in 2019 from his job as the chief of staff for Special Operations in U.S. Central Command.


Andy's first book is When the Tempest Gathers, which relays his experiences as the first Marine to lead a special forces combat task force as well as his journey from private to colonel. Also, check out his MilitaryTimes op-ed which serves as the foundation for our discussion.
