Right now, C2SI is closely following the latest developments regarding US policy in Ukraine, but for this episode, we're going back for some historical perspective. Back in November, we sat down for a great discussion with Dr. Alex Burns of the Franciscan University of Steubenville to talk about military training, force generation, and warfare in the 18th century -- the "kabinettskriege" period.

You can follow Dr. Burns at kabinettskriege.bsky.social and read more of his work at https://kabinettskriege.blogspot.com/. His new book, "Infantry in Battle 1733-1783", is available here.

If you support Ukraine, the best thing you can do is DONATE TO HELP THE ZSU. There are many charities you can support, here are some of the larger Ukrainian ones:
