The American Sea Power Project

This issue includes the opening chapter of the American Sea Power Project—a project that continues the Naval Institute’s long legacy of thought leadership related to naval power. It is our hope that our members and readers will engage with this dialogue as it plays out over the next several years. Please share each month’s installment with your shipmates and provide feedback in the dedicated monthly Comment & Discussion section. We see this project as critical to the future health of the Sea Services—a debate not just for Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard professionals, but also for the American public and national political leaders. The project will move from the pages of Proceedings to the stage of the Jack C. Taylor Conference Center and other venues later this year.

Conferences and Events

Defense Forum Washington 2020. The U.S. Naval Institute hosted a special virtual event titled “Delivering the Future Fleet to Maintain America’s Competitive Advantage” on 3 December. Attendees had the opportunity to hear from the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on important military challenges; the Commandant of the Marine Corps and the Chief of Naval Operations on fleet transformation and naval integration; and from the Commanders of Naval Sea Systems Command and Naval Air Systems Command on sustaining the fleet and building for the future. If you missed it, you can now watch the full event on demand at defenseforumwashington.org. This event was made possible by generous support from Leonardo DRS and Lockheed Martin.
