The United States Army is built to fight and win our nation’s wars. So why do militaries often find themselves relearning the same lessons every generation?

In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, Tommie and Lance sit down with Command Sergeant Major (Retired) Carl Cunningham to explore institutional memory in the Army.

Drawing on decades of leadership experience from the Cold War era through the post-9/11 wars, the conversation examines how lessons are captured, why some are forgotten, and what today’s leaders can learn from the past.

From training culture to leadership development, this episode reflects on the challenge of preserving hard-earned experience across generations of Soldiers.
