Fixing the Military's Broken Incentive System | Restore the Military Podcast (Ep. 3)

This is the Restore the Military Podcast, a brand-new show by Restoration of America featuring ROA founder Doug Truax and senior fellow Will Thibeau


Is the military paying its warriors what they're worth? A Pentagon staff officer behind a desk and an infantry platoon leader who took fire yesterday earn the same base pay.
