Publication: ADF Journal
This special issue, with a foreword from Chief of the Defence Force Air Chief Marshal Mark Binskin, features a selection of some of the best articles published by the Journal over the past ten years (2007 to 2017). They cover a range of topics and contributions by ADF members representing each of the Services, as well as several articles from non-Defence contributors. It launches a new-look format, following the Australian Defence Force Journal's 40th anniversary and the publication of its 200th issue.
Over the past four decades, the Journal has published articles and reviews by some 2000 contributors, totalling around ten million words related to the profession of arms in Australia. Some were awarded 'best article' recognition in their respective issue. Others were selected to highlight a particularly topical issue. Collectively, the Board considered them to represent an interesting and readable compendium of issues addressed by the ADF Journal over the past decade.
