In this episode of The Deep Dive, Ahmed Alnaouq sits down with investigative journalist and author Matt Kennard to discuss his book Irregular Army: How the US Military Recruited Neo-Nazis, Gang Members, Criminals.
Drawing on years of reporting, interviews with military insiders, extremist veterans, and whistleblowers, Kennard examines how recruitment policies during the War on Terror opened the door to neo-Nazis, white supremacists, gang members, and convicted criminals entering the ranks of the US military.
