Kwame Kwei-Armah from Center Stage on their upcoming season of plays.

In February, Baltimore area native Major Robert Marchanti II was killed at a ministry in Kabul, Afghanistan. His death comes after the passing of a decade in which the Global War on Terror dramatically altered the role of the National Guard. We’ll learn about Major Marchanti’s life from his daughter Leah. Then we’ll talk with Larry Minear, who has written a report on the toll this shift has taken on National Guard families, and we’ll meet Adjutant General James Adkins. As the man responsible for the operations of the Maryland National Guard, he’s seen first hand the massive changes that started on that awful day in September.
