The nature of national security has become increasingly more complicated in 2014 and includes issues ranging from nuclear proliferation to the influence of culture on conflict. Senior Officers representing the United States Army, Navy, and Marine Corps will brief the audience on a variety of national security issues including the growth of nuclear weapons, the influence of religious issues and conflicts on joint operations, the responsibility to protect doctrine and the challenge it poses to upholding sovereignty, the future of the United States’ position in the Middle East, and the war against Al Quada. A question and answer session will follow the presentation.
