Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School’s Special Forces Museum, Fran and Ken discuss how Special Operations has changed over the 80 years since its inception, the strategic importance of the Special Forces Regiment and what it means to be a Green Beret in the peer-to-peer competition we haven't seen since the Cold War.
