Sebastian Bae, "Fleet Marine Force: Designing an Educational Wargame"

We’re excited to wrap up our focus on wargaming by welcoming #TeamKrulak Non-Resident Fellow Sebastian J. Bae back to the #BruteCast. Sebastian is a research analyst at the Center for Naval Analyses (CNA), where works in wargaming, emerging technologies, the future of warfare, and strategy and doctrine for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. He also serves as an adjunct assistant professor at the Center for Security Studies at Georgetown University, where he teaches a graduate course on designing educational wargames. He teaches similar courses at the U.S. Marine Corps Command and Staff College and the U.S. Naval Academy. Sebastian is also the faculty advisor to the Georgetown University Wargaming Society, the Co-Chair of the Military Operations Research Society Wargaming Community of Practice, and serves on the Executive Committee for the Educational Wargaming Cooperative. Previously, he served six years in the Marine Corps infantry, deploying to Iraq in 2009 and leaving as a sergeant.

Sebastian talks about how he designed the educational wargame FMF INDOPACOM, which went from being a COVID interest project to a tool whose use across the Marine Corps and joint force has grown exponentially in the last year.

The Georgetown University Wargaming Society (GUWS) has been a key #TeamKrulak partner in sharing #wargaming knowledge and opportunities. Learn more about GUWS here, and check out their extensive library of #wargaming videos here.
