#TBT to our presentation in May 2016 on "One to One: Bridging Military and Civilian Priorities on Global Subjects That Matter - Russia." This program was intended to create interactive conversations spotlighting the perspectives of military and civilian guest speakers on global subjects that matter. The guest speakers for this event were Lieutenant General Russell Handy of the Alaska Command and David Ramseur of Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER). The discussion was moderated by General Joseph Ralston (USAF Retired).

General Ralston has spoken for us several times and is an Advisor Director for the Alaska World Affairs Council. Tonight he will be speaking with Ambassador Negroponte at our event "US National Security Unfiltered."
