Today's guest is the host of the Mother of Tanks/Why We Fight podcast - Sasha Maggio! Sasha's background is actually in intelligence studies and psychology, but she's had an interest in military history and World War II for many years. She's held various contractor jobs with the US Army and the Department of Defense, including the Army Combined Arms Center at Ft. Leavenworth. She is currently a unit deployment manager with the US Air Force's 37th Airlift Squadron at Ramstein Air Base in Germany. She will soon begin doctoral studies in military history at Maynooth University in Ireland, focusing on non-military-related soldier crime in the US Army in Europe during World War II. A Boston native, Sasha is also a classically trained singer and a pastry chef.
We'll talk being an Army spouse, working as a defense contractor, the evolution of the successful Why We Fight podcast, touring Sicily, Larceny Bourbon, and the 1941 US Army GHQ maneuvers, among other topics.
