COHORT W – Season 5: A Legacy of Service

Welcome to Season 5 of COHORT W! I am your host, CW3 Marcus Harvey, an Army Warrant Officer, educator, and Warrant Officer Historical Foundation Fellow with a long-standing interest in Army history and the Warrant Officer profession.

Across the season, I will chat with historians and today’s Warrant Officers to explore how experience, trust, and technical expertise have shaped the Army across branches and generations. The conversations connect past lessons to present-day service and look ahead to the future of the force.

Produced in partnership with the Warrant Officer Historical Foundation, A Legacy of Service isn’t just about history; it’s about understanding where the profession comes from and why it continues to matter, often outside the spotlight.

If you enjoy thoughtful conversations about military history, leadership, and the people who keep complex systems running, this season is worth a listen.

Season 5, Episode 2 of COHORT W takes a look back at the history and evolution of the podcast through a focused conversation with previous COHORT W hosts. Together, they reflect on the experiences that shaped their seasons, share lessons learned from carrying the Warrant Officer story to a broader audience, and discuss how the podcast has continued to grow as a platform for preserving history, sharing perspectives, and strengthening the Warrant Officer community. The episode also looks ahead, exploring the future of COHORT W and how upcoming hosts can continue building on its legacy while finding new ways to connect, educate, and inspire the cohort.
