Episode notes

The article I printed out from Modern War Institute was, it says, large scale combat operations, lessons learned from Ukraine. And if we try to base it off just of our exploits in both Gulf Wars, where we did dominate on a large field, but everybody that was part of it, they're gone. But that's a good study from NWI that is applicable to anybody in the military.

A no BS, thoughtful, yet entertaining conversation on the topic of Critical Thinking between SGM Chuck Ritter and LTC Charles Faint from the Modern War Institute at West Point.

LTC Charles Faint is currently stationed at the United States Military Academy at West Point. He serves as the Chair for the Study of Special Operations at the Modern War Institute. Before coming to West Point, LTC Faint completed seven combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan and operational tours in Egypt, the Republic of Korea, and The Philippines. A career Military Intelligence officer, he also served in various units, including the 5th Special Forces Group, the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, and the Joint Special Operations Command. LTC Faint holds five college degrees, the most recent of which is from Yale University. He owns the popular blog The Havok Journal and is the Executive Director of the non-profit veterans’ advocacy organization The Second Mission Foundation.

SGM Chuck Ritter is a Special Forces Sergeant Major and serves as the Deputy Commandant at the United States Army Special Warfare Center and School Noncommissioned Officer Academy. He also co-produces/hosts the SWCS Pineland Underground Podcast.
