On December 21, Forward Defense senior military fellow Lt Col Christopher Mulder’s book review on H.R. McMaster’s Battlegrounds was featured in DOD Reads. Mulder concludes that the book is a must-read for anyone interested in the national security process and the complex role of the United States as a global leader.
Battlegrounds will prove a valuable reference well into the future, to grasp strategic empathy, foreign policy, and national security that the general mastered over his thirty-five plus years of service to our nation.
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.
