Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellows Bryan Clark and Dan Patt and Major General Arnold L. Punaro, USMC (Ret.) for a discussion on the challenges facing the U.S. military. With rising costs, a sclerotic bureaucracy, and an absence of clear priorities, the combat capacity of the U.S. military is shrinking while contending with the rising threats of Russian and Chinese aggression. The Department of Defense will need a combination of reform and leadership to navigate this challenging situation. Please join Hudson Institute for this important discussion.
