205: One CA Year in Review Part I | The One CA Podcast (2024)

Welcome to One CA Podcast.

As we go into the holidays, the One CA brings on the show's founder, John McElligott, to talk with Brian Hancock and Jack Gaines about the show's beginnings, current updates and goals for the future. So, stay tuned.

One CA is a product of the civil affairs association

and brings in people who are current or former military, diplomats, development officers, and field agents to discuss their experiences on the ground with a partner nation's people and leadership.

We aim to inspire anyone interested in working in the "last three feet" of U.S. foreign relations.

To contact the show, email us at CApodcasting@gmail.com
