Usually, C2SI focuses on modern military training and readiness. Sometimes, though, we like to get a historical perspective. We recently sat down with Patrick Wyman, host of the Tides of History podcast and author of The Verge, to chat about how armies were raised and trained (or not!) at the dawn of modern military professionalism in the late Middle Ages and Renaissance, and how studying this period can help us understand our own tumultuous time.
