1on1 with Jon Evans

Mark Gurganus grew up in Wilmington, attended the University of North Carolina on an NJROTC scholarship, and then began a career in the US Marine Corps. Gurganus rose to the rank of Major General, commanding thousands of men and women on the front lines of America’s War on Terrorism, until a deadly attack on a base in Afghanistan in 2012. Gurganus talks candidly about the attack and the investigation that found him responsible, forcing his retirement and ending his 37-year decorated career.
