The research, presentations, key points, and discussions are consolidated in a compendium in this inaugural issue of For the Common Defense. Approximately 125 security professionals from a wide variety of backgrounds including the Joint Force, all levels of government, and civilian academia, attended in-person or virtually for three days. They participated in the symposium because they recognize that our homeland is once again in danger. Our potential adversaries are already making preparations to conduct operations in the continental U.S. in the event of a future large- scale combat operation. They will strive to disrupt infrastructure and supply chains, generate civil unrest, and create multiple dilemmas for elected leaders with the goal of keeping our military forces out of the warfight overseas.<br/> <img src='https://media.defense.gov/2025/Sep/19/2003805390/115/75/0/250919-A-XF210-0001.PNG' alt='Cover of For the Common Defense: 2025 Homeland Defense Symposium Compendium' /> <br /> Fri, 19 Sep 2025 19:23:00 GMT Pentagon News https://publications.armywarcollege.edu/News/Display/Article/4310271/for-the-common-defense-2025-homeland-defense-symposium-compendium/ Center for Strategic Leadership (CSL) Recent Articles
