Episode Notes:

Ian Brown sat down with Sgt. (ret.) Sebastian Bae to talk wargaming, and how the Marine Corps uses both analytical and educational wargames to assess future problems and prepare the operating forces for potential conflict. Sebastian has written about wargaming for War on the Rocks in his article, "Put Educational Wargaming in the Hands of the Warfighter." His own game, Littoral Commander: Indo-Pacific, is used extensively by Marine Corps units and partners and allies as an educational tool for future war.
