Defense Information can be deceptively "easy" to run across on the web, but so much MORE is available when you have the kind of authentication "access pass" offered by the library through your NPS affiliation. This class is designed to give you the "Insider view" using up-to-date resources only available via institutional affiliation. We will consider the place of defense research in the academic tradition and outside of it, using licensed resources such as Jane's Online as well as take a look at Inside Defense, DTIC and other military-specific resources.
