  Graduate Student

  Graduated from the Joint Advanced Warfighting School (JAWS), Joint Forces Staff College. The JAWS curriculum balances operational and strategic studies. The interrelated core courses, Foundations in Theory of War, Strategic Foundations and Operational Art and Campaigning provide the developmental framework. Blending theory foundations and historical evidence, the Foundations in Theory of War course provides the underpinning to all that follows through an aggressive series of case studies, guided seminar discussions and guest speakers. This course creates a tentative propositional inventory that enables the student to examine critically and ask the tough questions about military art and science. JAWS strives to produce world-class warfighters prepared to operate in a fast paced, often chaotic and multi-tasking environment. Show less
