Ep. 87 Dakota Wood, Editor, "2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength"

In October, the Heritage Foundation in Washington, DC, released its 578-page 2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength. Retired Marine Lt. Col. Dakota Wood edited the Index, which includes essays and analysis from over 16 experts chosen by the Heritage Foundation.

Lt. Col. Wood joins us to talk about the findings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
