In today's episode of The Pen and the Sword, Adin is joined by Randy "Charlie Sherpa" Brown, author of "FOB Haiku" and Barry Alexander, author of "On Afghanistan's Plains." The trio discuss the various ways in which we talk about and remember war, the role of humor in bridging the civilian-military divide, and more.
