Biografia e Jornada do Autor
H. R. McMaster’s public life took shape at the intersection of soldiering, scholarship, and policy. A Philadelphia native, he graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1984, later earned a Ph.D. in military history from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and returned to West Point as an assistant professor of history. Those academic credentials developed alongside a 34-year Army career that gave him firsthand experience in modern war, from Eagle Troop at the 1991 Battle of 73 Easting to command in Tal Afar during the Iraq War, before culminating in senior strategic roles and, eventually, service as national security adviser in 2017–18.
