Описание: There has been a great deal of energetic discussion recently over the Marine Corps' adaptation for future conflict, "Force Design 2030." In this special #BruteCast episode, we welcome two additional voices to the debate. Cols Tim Barrick and Matt Jones (both USMC, retired) will look at some of the questions raised by Force Design 2030's vision.
