The Life & Death of One of America's Secret Soldiers: Michael Froede | Kate Rocklein | Jul Bonus Ep

Dr. Kemplin earned her BNSc at Queen’s University, MScN and Doctorate in Nursing Practice at Loyola University (New Orleans), and PhD from Rush University (Chicago). Kate was a civilian emergency/trauma nurse specialist for the United States Army before becoming faculty in Nursing and Operational Medicine at the Medical College of Georgia with subsequent appointments in the University of North Carolina and University of Tennessee systems.

Froede was a member of a secret Army unit known by the innocuous-sounding cover name Communications Technology Research Activity, or COMTECH, part of an elite group of Army hackers who received tasks from the National Security Agency.
