Home Ground Radio with Brian Kahn
Home Ground Radio with Brian Kahn

What is the oldest branch of the U.S. military? The Army? The Navy? No: it’s the National Guard, founded in 1636, 140 years before our Declaration of Independence. Adjutant General Gene Prendergast knows that. He served in the Montana Guard for 47 years. It is a career marked by innovation, commitment and creativity.

(Broadcast: "Home Ground Radio", 09/25/16. Listen on the radio or online, Sundays at 11:10 a.m., or via podcast.)
