Information Operations in the Australian Defence Force

Jeffrey Malone
Jeffrey Malone

I gave this presentation at the IQPC IO Europe Conference (Malvern, UK) in June 2004. The presentation covers both the reception and incorporation of IO by the Australian Defence Force, and an overview of the operational employment of IO by the ADF in operations up to mid 2004 (Bouganville, East Timor, Afghanistan, Iraq and the Solomon Islands).
