From Jump Wings to Green Berets: The Visual Architect of the Modern Warrior
An Interview with Author Christopher “Moon” Mullins and Historian Arthur “Ben” Powers,
Podcaster for The Commander’s Voice.
The history of the United States Army is often told through the lens of grand strategy and sweeping maps, yet the soul of the soldier is frequently found in the icons they wear. For retired First Sergeant Christopher “Moon” Mullins, the pursuit of military history is not merely a scholarly endeavor but a continuation of a life spent in the 82nd Airborne Division and the 5th Special Forces Group Comms Support B Teams. His latest work, Father of the Green Berets: General William Yarborough: The Man Who Forged the Green Berets and America’s Paratroopers, serves as a definitive reckoning of the life and legacy of Lieutenant General William Pelham Yarborough—a man who arguably did more to sculpt the physical and psychological identity of the American elite soldier than any other officer of the twentieth century.
