S5E06 Cameron Zinsou - US Army Command and General Staff College

Today's guest is one of the nicest and brightest new scholars in the military history community - Cameron Zinsou of the US Army Command and General Staff College at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. A native of Ft. Worth, Texas, Cameron thrived at North Texas as an undergraduate and earned his PhD at Mississippi State University. He's a World War II guy, focusing on French meanings of citizenship during the conflict. There's a lot in this one, so get ready - we'll talk growing up in Ft. Worth, early interest in Civil War history (a la Lesley Gordon), grief and loss of a sibling, the influence of Rob Citino, getting hooked on F1 after a lifetime of misguided NASCAR fandom, among many other topics. Enjoy.

Shoutout to Arthur Bryant's BBQ in Kansas City!
