On April 4, Forward Defense nonresident senior fellow Francis X. Taylor was interviewed by his alma mater’s magazine about his experiences as a black student, the difficulties he overcame at Notre Dame, and how it prepared him for a career as a brigadier general and commander of the Air Force’s Office of Special Investigations.
Forward Defense, housed within the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, generates ideas and connects stakeholders in the defense ecosystem to promote an enduring military advantage for the United States, its allies, and partners. Our work identifies the defense strategies, capabilities, and resources the United States needs to deter and, if necessary, prevail in future conflict.
