In this episode, we were thrilled to bring you the newest of the new cadre of #TeamKrulak Non-Resident Fellows - Dr. James Holmes, who is both a new Fellow, but a #BruteCast alumnus, having joined the show back in March for a panel event focusing on the South China Sea. He is a professor of strategy, the inaugural holder of the J. C. Wylie Chair of Maritime Strategy, and a two-time visiting professor of national security affairs at the Naval War College. He has published over 25 book chapters and 350 scholarly essays, along with hundreds of opinion columns, think-tank analyses, and other works. Dr. Holmes has been quoted or cited in outlets ranging from The Economist to Xinhua and appeared on such broadcast outlets as the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, NPR, and the BBC. His most recent books are A Brief Guide to Maritime Strategy and a second edition of Red Star Over the Pacific: China's Rise and the Challenge to U.S. Maritime Strategy. Red Star Over the Pacific was named to the Navy Professional Reading List as Advanced Reading and was also selected for the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Indo-Pacific Command Professional Reading Lists.

Dr. Holmes referenced a previous article, "Visualize Chinese Sea Power," in this presentation; it is available as a downloadable attachment here: https://unum.nsin.us/kcic/customObject/viewCustomObject/53ef8edf21cf
