Please join me in welcoming Gretchen Peters, one of the best counter-network people I know.

Gretchen came in to discuss the current challenges with targeting kingpins and criminal organizations

and how she maps and targets a network to ensure that the leaders get prosecuted and that the arrests also collapse the criminal organization.

With our adversaries using criminal networks to forward their foreign policy goals, I felt this would be a pertinent discussion on how the US should respond. This is a two-part episode, so let's get started.

One CA is a product of the civil affairs association and brings in people who are current or former military, diplomats, development officers, and field agents to discuss their experiences on the ground with a partner nation's people and leadership.

We aim to inspire anyone interested in working in the "last three feet" of U.S. foreign relations.
