This event marked the deadliest single-day loss for the U.S. Marine Corps since World War II and continues to impact United States foreign policy. James M. Scott is a Pulitzer Prize finalist and co-author with Jack Carr, of the new book "TARGETED: BERUIT – The 1983 Marine Barracks Bombing and the Untold True Origin Story of the War on Terror," which provides an in-depth account of the attack based on survivor interviews, military records, and personal documents. Their conversation covers the historical context of U.S. involvement in Lebanon, the complexities of the region's political landscape, and the strategic missteps that led to the bombing. Additionally, Scott shares insights into his career as a military historian and his experiences leading battlefield tours.
