In this episode of "What’s Really Happening?", retired four-star General Frank McKenzie explores the remarkable yet complex career of five-star Fleet Admiral William Frederick "Bull" Halsey Jr., renowned for his pivotal role in the Pacific theater during World War II. Known for his “hit hard, hit fast, hit often” strategy, Admiral Halsey led multiple victories against the Japanese Imperial Fleet.

General McKenzie reflects on the effectiveness of Halsey’s approach, examining its early successes and its limitations during the later stages of the war. Tune in for an expert analysis of one of America’s most iconic naval commanders and the evolution of military strategy in wartime.

At the Boundary from the Global and National Security Institute at the University of South Florida, features global and national security issues we’ve found to be insightful, intriguing, fascinating, maybe controversial, but overall just worth talking about.

A "boundary" is a place, either literal or figurative, where two forces exist in close proximity to each other. Sometimes that boundary is in a state of harmony. More often than not, that boundary has a bit of chaos baked in. The Global and National Security Institute will live on the boundary of security policy and technology and that's where this podcast will focus.

The mission of GNSI is to provide actionable solutions to 21st-century security challenges for decision-makers at the local, state, national and global levels. We hope you enjoy At the Boundary.
