On September 25, Forward Defense nonresident senior fellow Elliot Ackerman was featured on The Washington Post with his new opinion piece on the importance of memorializing the Global War on Terror. He points to the importance of remembering the forgotten war and the positive effects of this war memorial on veterans and civilian society alike.

Forward Defense develops and shapes policy solutions that build US military power to deter war and secure the future.
