Biography

Wright was raised in Connecticut. He attended College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he earned a degree in history, graduating in 1968. He served in the U. S. Army, as a Teletype operator in Berlin, after which he served with the 18th Military History Detachment where in 1969-1970 he devoted time recording the operations of the 25th Infantry Division in Vietnam.[2]

Sergeant Wright received his honorable discharge in 1970. Under the GI Bill, he attended graduate school where he earned a Ph.D. in history from the College of William and Mary in 1980. He spent the greater portion of his career at the United States Army Center of Military History in Washington, D.C. He was then commissioned in the Virginia Army National Guard in 1982 with the rank of captain where he commanded the 116th Military History Detachment in Manassas, Virginia, ultimately being promoted to a major. Wright served at Fort Bragg, North Carolina from 1989 to 1991, as the XVIII Airborne Corps command historian, where he deployed with the corps to Panama (Operation Just Cause) and the first Persian Gulf war (Operation Desert Shield-Desert Storm). He also deployed to Somalia (Operation Restore Hope) as an Army Reservist as part of the first-ever joint history team composed of historians from the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps. In 2002 Wright retired from government service as the chief of the Center of Military History's library and archives. Wright's 1983 book, The Continental Army, is widely considered the standard reference work covering the army of the American Revolutionary War.[2][3]
