[1] This is an awkward statement in an introductory article to a special themed edition of the Australian Army Journal (AAJ), a publication which for 10 years (2003–2013) bore on its title page the phrase ‘For the Profession of Arms’. [2] It is rendered all the more uncomfortable by recalling that the army profession …

The Utility of Mission Command within Domestic Security and Response Operations The land domain is where people live, where decision makers reside and where human, physical and technical access to all other domains begins.
