Fellow Spotlight: Gil Barndollar Lincoln Fellow 2018

"After graduate school I joined the U.S. Marine Corps in 2009 and served as an infantry officer for seven years. My time in uniform, especially overseas deployments to Afghanistan, increased my skepticism about both the conception and execution of U.S. foreign policy since 9/11. I found it hard to be a big believer in nation building after having done a little bit of it."
