Episode 192—Defending US Military Bases in the Middle East with Lt. Col. Dave Graves

from The Flash Traffic Podcast · host Dr. Anthony Tingle

My guest today is Lieutenant Colonel Dave Graves. Dave was the commander of a battalion when it deployed to Jordan shortly after the Tower 22 incident wherein an Iranian drone hit a US military base killing 3 service members and wounding tens of others. We discuss the difficulties in defending our bases in the Middle East and who, if anyone, should be held responsible for the US’s inability to protect those bases from these drones.
