Marine Historian on Deck: LtCol Kurt Wheeler

I’d like to introduce my good friend and fellow Marine, LtCol Kurt Wheeler. Kurt is part of the Marine Field History Detachment and will head overseas in the not too distant future.

Kurt is one of the fewer and prouder, the Ivy League Marines. He has a BA and an MA from Harvard. A Desert Storm vet, he is also a high school history teacher and member of his town’s governing body. In other words, your classic educated, engaged citizen-Marine.

He’ll be blogging from the appropriately named Marine Historian.
