This is an interesting and atypical topic for War Room. Having spent nearly 30 uniformed years in the Army and undergone several “new uniform” drills, I sympathize with the challenges of creating a product that inevitably engenders strong feelings on both sides. I take particular exception to the new Army service uniform cap which lacks the stiffener and thus looks like a misshapen frisbee rather than the headgear of a serious professional.

This is an outstanding podcast for anyone interested in understanding modern events with some historical perspective.
Ron Granieri is a fantastic host with a sultry voice that leaves me purring like a relaxed kitten while simultaneously exciting the listener like a teen at a Harry Styles concert with his profound knowledge of German military history.
I highly recommend this podcast as a means to have a better understanding of the world around you and how events unfold.
Morell and a few of his IC colleagues told the world Hunter's laptop was russian propaganda. Turns out Morell and his pals lied in hopes of influencing a U.S. election. Everything he said since is filtered through that lie. Trust? lol...yeah, trust a veteran spook at your own peril, lol
The listener is advised to be fluent in acronymics.
Thank God someone is now researching this important subject. Information and training from time in the military can be the best tools to use against the defense of a free nation. Keep going with your studies you are on the right path!
