Welcome

"Of the challenges facing the Department of Defense in the future, none is greater or more complex than the threat posed by weapons of mass destruction."

(Defense Reform Initiative Report, November 1997.)

Dear Visitor:

As we forge ahead into the twenty-first century, witnessing great technological gains and global change almost daily, the Defense Nuclear Weapons School continues in its evolution as the nation's education and training center for DOD nuclear-core competencies. Defense Nuclear Weapons School personnel are working complex educational and training issues associated with America's continued nuclear deterrent role and the threat posed by weapons of mass destruction.
