VJ Books presents Brian Haig!

Brian Haig spent 22 years on active duty before retiring as a lieutenant colonel in 1997 and going into private business. He graduated from West Point in 1975, and was commissioned an infantry lieutenant. His first posting was an infantry battalion in Germany guarding Pershing Missiles, followed by three years as an infantry company commander at Fort Carson, Colorado, before he was selected as an intern at the Organization of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, working in the Current Operations Directorate on the Lebanon peacekeeping operation. 

The Army sent him to Harvard for a master's degree and a specialty in military strategy. For the next three years he was the global strategist on the Army staff, responsible for helping formulate the regional warplan for Southwest Asia, and the global warplans against the Soviet Union, translating military requirements into the DOD budget, and advising the Army's senior leadership on global issues.

His final four years on active duty were as the Special Assistant to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, preparing all speeches, briefings, public statements, and congressional testimonies, as well as advising the Chairman on strategic, global and Asian regional issues.

After he retired in the Summer of 1997, he became a Director, then President of Erickson AirCrane, manufacturer and operator of the world's largest heavy helicopter fleet, and then spent a year as President of International Business Communications, a B2B internet company for the sale of aviation parts. 

He has a Bachelor of Science from the United States Military Academy, a Masters in Public Administration from Harvard, and a Masters in Government from Georgetown University. His military awards include Airborne wings and the Ranger tab, two Legions of Merit, and the Distinguished Service Medal.
