Here I am at the old Fort Sherman in Panama, once the U.S. jungle training school, and perhaps again soon. This site was the home of many who trained to fight in places like Vietnam, and was at its peak during the Cold War. But it’s been broadly abandoned and repurposed since 1999. Today, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth pledged to re-open at least part of it, with some improvements having already been made in the past few months. | Raheem Kassam
