Ep. 060 - David Armstrong Former Action Guys Podcast

David Armstrong is a retired Lieutenant Colonel from the United States Marine Corps. He was an artillery and tank officer on active duty and the reserves and gives great insight into the reservist side of the Marine Corps.

We also get into the restructuring of the Marine Corps by the current commandant and what effects that decision could have across the fleet. Another really great show with an intelligent individual.
