This chapter analyzes the evolution of military education at the RCAF Staff College in the decade following the Second World War by stressing the multifaceted approach which relied on the three components of military power: conceptual, moral, and physical. While the former took the lion's share of RCAF military education with its extensive study on airpower, the two latter aspects were also present in the Staff College formative experience to cement an esprit de corps. By comparing the Staff College program to elements present in contemporary staff education at the Canadian Forces College, the essay underlines the roots of military education in the Canadian Forces after the Second World War.
