S6E02 Paul Springer - USAF Air Command & Staff College

Today's guest is the USAF Air Command and Staff College's Paul "PJ" Springer. PJ has a great story - from the farm fields of Iowa to Aggieland to Maxwell AFB, Paul had dreams of being a physicist, but the end of the Cold War and a couple of good experiences in history courses at Texas A&M put him on the righteous path. Paul has written widely on Civil War POWs, military technology, among many other subjects. Versatile in his research interests and committed to the professional development of military officers through the use of history, PJ is one of a kind. Join us for a fun chat with PJ Springer - we'll talk growing up in Iowa, getting shot, robots and military technology, the serendipity of research, call signs, and making your own bacon. Get your favorite beverage and settle in - enjoy!

Shoutout to Fat Man's Smokehouse BBQ in Montgomery, Alabama, and check out Mad Science Bacon Lab!
