Bush while serving in the US Army Reserves, Major Matthew Yandura spent his 2003-2004 deployment in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom initially as a plans officer with the 11th PSYOP Battalion and then as special assistant to Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt - the deputy director of operations and the military spokesman for MNC-I - and speechwriter for the commanding general of MNF-I: first, Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez, and then General George Casey. In this interview, he discusses his remarkably unique deployed experiences, as well as his own unique background; his insider's view of these two commanding generals, especially Casey whom Yandura describes in very praiseful terms; the challenge posed in the Army by what he calls \"rank-ism\"; his experiences working with Middle Eastern media and his thoughts more broadly on how we can develop more \"media-savvy soldiers and officers\"; and also the important differences between psychological and information operations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51960873976096,"sku":"NEW1288539061","price":17.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/interview-with-maj-matthew-yandura-1288539061","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
