Continue Mission

August 9th 2024 on continue mission we will have a current events update and do a deep dive into the evolution of Gun Truck usage in the US Military and abroad and why these mission and lessons appear to be relearned in every military conflict. When did Gun Trucks show up on the scene and historically speaking what are the lessons learned from those missions that is being taught today? 

Military historian Richard Killbane has spent decades researching and studying the use of Gun Trucks in battle and tonight we are going to review those lessons while also discussing the recent Smithsonian Channels "Gun Trucks of Vietnam" and how that needs to be continued as a series to continue the deep history and and also the recent history on the use if Gun Truck's or Military Convoy Escort Platforms.
