The Canadian Army Journal, a refereed forum of ideas and issues, is the
official publication of the Canadian Army. This periodical is dedicated to
the expression of mature professional thought on the art and science of
land warfare, the dissemination and discussion of doctrinal and training
concepts, as well as ideas, concepts, and opinions by all army personnel
and those civilians with an interest in such matters. Articles on related
subjects such as leadership, ethics, technology, and military history are also
invited and presented. The Canadian Army Journal is central to the
intellectual health of the Canadian Army and the production of valid
future concepts, doctrine, and training policies. It serves as a vehicle for the
continuing education and professional development of all ranks and
personnel in the Canadian Army, as well as members from other
environments, government agencies, and academia concerned with the
Canadian Army, defence, and security affairs.
