This issue of the ADF Journal features speeches by each of the Service Chiefs to the Royal Australiam Navy's 2016 Sea Power Conference. They articulate how the ADF perceives its role in the future operating environment, reinforcing that the ADF's professional mastery of joint warfare as its primary mission.

This issue concludes with an article by Major Leon Young on strategic thinking, presenting some of the work undertaken during his CDF Fellowship in 2015.
