ISW hosted a Field Report with General James Mattis, U.S. Central Command.

General Mattis previously commanded the 1st Marine Expeditionary Brigade and then Task Force 58, during Operation Enduring Freedom in southern Afghanistan.
This event also celebrated the launch of ISW’s new Middle East Security Project, which expands ISW’s research purview in order to provide operational insight on the changing dynamics of the region.
