Adj. Gen. Greg Knight joins Vermont Edition to discuss deployment during a pandemic, sexual misconduct in the Guard and more.

The Vermont National Guard has deployed over 80 airmen since October and plans to deploy hundreds more soldiers in the next few months. This hour: a conversation about deploying during a pandemic—for guard members and their families back home. And we discuss the ongoing culture audit the Guard is conducting in response to continued reports of sexual misconduct and gender discrimination.

Our guests are:

You can find Jasper Craven's reporting on sexual misconduct in the Vermont National Guard here

You can find Kevin McCallum's reporting on the Guard here

Broadcast live on Monday, Dec. 21, 2020 at noon. Rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
