Kenneth Allard is a former U.S. Army Colonel widely known to national audiences.

For more than a decade, he was a featured military analyst on the networks of NBC News, particularly MSNBC and CNBC.

His other books include Command, Control and the Common Defense, winner of the 1991 National Security Book Award. Colonel Allard holds a doctorate from the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy and an MPA from Harvard University.
