Dr. Mark T. Esper, 29th U.S. Secretary of Defense, wrote “A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times” to chronicle his experiences at the Pentagon during the tumultuous term of Donald J.

Mark shares his assessment of the country’s current adversaries and his work at West Point’s Modern War Institute and at Red Cell Partners, his VC firm investing in the next generation of tactical and information technology.
