The Sword and the Olive Branch
I feel confident you'll find this month's Proceedings , our annual Surface Warfare issue, bubbling over with fresh ideas and perceptive commentary. We lead off with Lieutenant Daniel Hancock's unusually provocative essay, "The Navy's Not Serious about Riverine Warfare" (page 14). His article raises important issues in a thoughtful, well-reasoned manner, a hallmark of the best Proceedings features.
