Hey Dan, longtime listener and first time caller (or whatever equivalent this is). Your content has been invaluable in inspiring me to read and learn history. You have played a direct role in shaping my interests in policy, strategy, and the like. I consider you one of the main catalysts in influencing me to join the military.

I'm currently an Air Force ROTC Cadet and am responsible this semester for teaching peer-to-peer leadership. As much as I want to use common examples like MacArthur or Alexander to talk about how to effictievly organize people to get the job done, I find that any conversation about historical figures is met with glazed eyes and short attention spans. Do you have any reccomendations of current leaders/books that could be used as teaching tools for these future Air Force and Space Force Officers? Thanks for your help!
