i do not think george patton commanding the phantom first u.s. army was responsible for the success of operation overlord. in so far as it forced some staff officer or planning cell in the high command of the german army to waste some time was all to the good and that is what i would say about every deception operation. on some tactical level, some can have real devastating success or failure. >> i think in this is something where -- i teach at the u.s. army intelligence center and we do not talk about deception but when we do talk about it, it is one of those things where i give kudos to the british. a lot of these operations, you look at mincemeat, were cooked up by the british and when you look at mincemeat, that is where they dropped the dead body with the paperwork and the germans thought we were going to land everywhere but sicily. a completely fooled them. deception was important. we also had the advantage because who are we trying to deceive? in a lot of cases, we were trying to deceive adolf hitler who would get involved in tactical decisions

a u.s. army captain and surgeon. he was assigned to the marines, stationed somewhere around ten miles from way. when the battle broke out, he was the first line of care. he tells the story of operating on many, many marines, one of which was a marine by the name of ab granthem. now, his juournal he kept is on display at the museum, and there's an entry that says gunshot wound to the chest. just a shorten tree. i said to mayor, i said it doesn't look like it was that significant. he said it wasn't that significant. and i said wait a minute, so his wound wasn't that significant. he said no, we got these all the time. i said well, you mean he wasn't wounded that badly? he said no, he came to us dead. we just brought him back. and that struck me as to the power and importance and dedication these surgeons had. now, mayor tells a story of bratibra operating on a marine, came with a gunshot wound, his guts were exposed. put him on the operating table, he went into cardiac arrest. he had a partner, a surgeon partner and the

he retired u.s. army colonel, he served in both operations desert storm and iraqi freedom. he specializes in history of the vietnam war in the cold war era. he has authored four books including the most recent "withdrawal: reassessing america's final years in vitnam." will. >> thank you all for coming out this afternoon. i appreciateci it. the title of this bill is vietnam, a retrospective. tom has given us three minutes to doam an entire retrospectivef the vietnam war. which is a heady task indeed. i thought i f would talk for jut a moment about two strands of memory. for the american war in vietnam. it's important to realize that memory is not history. while both can be contested clearly the history of the vietnam war is contested but oftentimes memory is more ingrained ii would argue in our sense of self. because it's more ingrained in our sense of self i think to oftentimes memory has to be reduced to simplified notions, to better fit within our memory. so the first string i would argue of the memory of the american war in vietnam revolves around the phrase, if only. we

west point valedictorian, harvard law, u.s. army officer, a successful businessman, three-term congressman, serving on the house intelligence committee. this is the resume that mike pompeo brought to the top job at the c.i.a. with the support of a bipartisan supermajority of the senate and by all accounts his tenure there has been a big success. the caliber of mike's leadership and the quality of his counsel have won him the respect of our national clandestine service and the confidence of the president. just recently director pompeo undertook sensitive conversations with directives of north korea to lay the groundwork for efforts aimed at denuclearizing the korean peninsula. as he steps into this new mission as secretary of state, he clearly enjoys the confidence of the president. and throughout his testimony before the foreign relations committee, he demonstrated expertise and professionalism. fortunately, even as so many of president trump's well-qualified nominees are obstructed and delayed without reason, a bipartisan majority

this is a former u.s. army judge advocate and currently joins me on the line could speak to todd's so different approaches here we heard special envoy to syria stephan staffan de mistura saying that this is a really dangerous point in time for the world and one of the things he called for was that the u.n. security council act in unity go they have to go together whatever they do at the same time you've got the u.s. ambassador nikki haley saying that the u.s. would respond regardless of what the security council decides what you think of the different approaches. well we've seen fifteen years of the different approach by the united states going it alone in iraq beginning in iraq fifteen years ago two thousand and three and we've made chaos out of the mideast we've created the conditions where there is a mass migration into europe which brought with that other problems that europeans you know have responded to and and now ready to do it again so we should not be seeing the united states should not be seen in any

just as i am so proud to be one of the three u.s. army world war ii veterans who remain in the senate today. the united states is a great country. one of the things that makes us so great is that, though we have made mistakes, we change and correct them, the right past wrongs. a is our responsibility as nation to do right by america's native people, those who exercise sovereignty of lands that later became part of the united states. while we can never change the paths, we have the power to change the future. throughout my career i have worked to ensure that my colleagues understand the federal relationship with native peoples and its origins in the constitution. policy of states supporting self-determination and self evidence for indigenous peoples leads to native self-sufficiency, resulting in our continued ability to be productive and contribute to the well-being of our families, our communities, and our great nation. work to skew federal policy for my people, the native hawaiians. recognizedstates has hundreds of alaskan natives and am

he came to attend college in the united states and enlisted in the u.s. armyfrom basic training in 2016. alex horton is reporting on the story for the "washington post." he is also an army veteran himself, and he joins me now. alex, walk us through why this young man, in particular, is now facing deportation. >> well, it's quite complicated. so, he came to the u.s. and he graduated from college in 2013 and he wanted to become a u.s. citizen, and one way for that to happen was for him to join the army and get expedited citizenship through a program that uses the skills of immigrants, like chinese, which he speaks, and he's also a college graduate. and the army is not full of people who speak chinese and who are -- have a college education when they enter as an enlisted soldier. so he waited for that program to open by going to a school that was approved by the department of homeland security. he got his work study program, took some college credits, so he could wait to enlist. dhs approved all of this. they had a school website. they had a seal. they had a pres

military academy and harvard law school, served as a u.s. army officer on the house intelligence committee and as director of the c.i.a. in my view, mike pompeo is unoaaniquely qualified -- uniquely qualified. i can't imagine -- it's hard to imagine a better choice for secretary of state than mike pompeo. now, one final matter. we've been talking all week about a big philosophical difference between democrats and republicans. tax reform has thrown it into stark relief. on the one hand, the democrats' governing philosophy is about consolidating as much money and power as possible right here in washington, d.c. under president obama, we watched democratic leaders turn every challenge the country faced into an excuse to raise taxes and impose regulations. our dear friends on the other side are the party of taxation, regulation, and litigation as well. we saw who wins under this top-down philosophy and who loses. america did not recover quickly enough from the great recession. and the unimpressive growth we did see during the obama administration was

spoehr: changing gears, at the end of the cold war, the u.s. army active component was 780,000 soldiers. 2017, the active army was 476,000. in 2018, the army was authorized to grow. then in the 2019 president's budget, he requests an active-duty size of 487,500. growth of another 4000. steady growth, fairly modest. two-year growth of 11,500. it is coming at the same time people in congress and elsewhere are saying the services are really going to have a hard time recruiting to these numbers and that maybe it does not even make sense to increase the size of the army if they cannot recruit to it. variety of factors playing into that. six months into 2018, i was wondering how recruiting is looking in 2018 and whether you anticipate the army being able to recruit that they need to. sec. esper: very good question. first of all, we are on track. i'm confident we will meet our goals. our retention rates are higher than they have ever been. that also take some pressure off the recruiting end of this. i would see the bigger picture is this. when i outline th
