Each year, the Chiefs of Staff of the Army and the Air Force, the Chief of Naval Operations, and the Commandant of the Marine Corps nominate an outstanding officer from their respective services as a candidate for a Military Fellowship. The Council usually awards two or three such fellowships annually. The program enables the officers selected to broaden their understanding of foreign relations by spending a year in residence at the Council’s headquarters in New York, or, in special circumstances, at the Council offices in Washington, D.C. Fellows participate in Council programs, meet with Council members and staff, and engage in studies in conjunction with the Council’s Studies Program. They also assist in arranging several politico–military trips for Council members during the year.
