The Defence Academy has its headquarters at what used to be the Royal Military College of Science site at Shrivenham in southwestern Oxfordshire, though the present campus also extends into the neighbouring village of Watchfield; it delivers education and training there and in a number of other sites.
The college was founded in 1927 as the Imperial Defence College and was located at 9 Buckingham Gate until 1939. [1] Its objective at that time was to instruct senior military officers in the defence of the British Empire, "to look at the problem of war as whole and not merely from a land, or sea, or air point of view."
