299: When West Point Rugby Went to War with Martin Pengelly

Host Reed Galen is joined by Martin Pengelly, Author and Washington Breaking News Correspondent for Guardian US. They discuss Martin’s latest book, Brotherhood: When West Point Rugby Went to War, a story of American rugby and a story of the U.S. Army created through intimate portraits of men shaped by West Point’s motto: “Duty, Honor, Country.” Plus, examining the U.S. Army as an organization in peace times, and why the media doesn’t always have to report on two sides of a lie. Be sure to pick up BROTHERHOOD wherever fine books are found and for more from Reed Galen, be sure to subscribe to “The Home Front”.
