520 |a"The inclusion of the operational level of war as an underpinning of professional military education has been accepted by the US Army, the German Army and the Soviet Army. It is believed that this concept also has a place in the CF and particularly, in the CFCSC [Canadian Forces Command and Staff Course] curriculum. These seemingly innocuous words written by the Director of Land Studies at the Canadian Forces College (CFC) in 1987 heralded the only significant paradigm shift to take place in Canadian military thought since the Second World War. The operational level was a notable departure from how the Canadian Forces (CF), particularly the Army understood and conducted war. Nurse’s statement acknowledged that the complexity of modern warfare had increased to such an extent that new ideas from other armies were displacing older concepts and it was necessary that Canada follow suit"--p. 1.
