NDU Press
Joint Force Quarterly is published by the National Defense University Press for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. JFQ is the Chairman's flagship joint military and security studies journal designed to inform members of the U.S. Armed Forces, allies, and other partners on joint and integrated operations; national security policy and strategy; efforts to combat terrorism; homeland security; and developments in training and joint professional military education to transform America's military and security apparatus to better meet tomorrow's challenges while protecting freedom today.
NDU Press produces JFQ four times a year. The goal of NDU Press is to provide defense and interagency decisionmakers, allies, and the attentive public with attractive, balanced, and thoroughly researched professional publications.
