Proceedings Magazine

Since 1874, Proceedings magazine has been the most identifiable product of the Naval Institute. Each monthly issue of this flagship publication includes articles from military professionals and civilian experts on current issues, lively reader commentary, interviews with military leaders and strategists from the United States and abroad, historical essays, book reviews, and full-color photography. A forum for spirited debate on issues affecting today's armed services, it is "must" reading for the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.

The May Proceedings is a double-sized edition that gives you the year-in-review of the Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marine. This one-source guide gives you the complete sea service leadership lists (flag and general officers and senior enlisted) with photos and billets, organizational charts, congressional committee members, and much more.


"I have never read an issue of Proceedings without getting a good idea. That's reason enough to be a member."
— the late Vice Admiral Arthur K. Cebrowski, U.S. Navy, (Retired)

". . . original ideas cannot be bought or trained; they require fertile ground in which to grow and develop. The Naval Institute has long been, as it is today, fertile ground."
— General Charles C. Krulak, USMC (Retired),
31st Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps
Member since 1991

"It's well known that if you want to know what's really going on in the Navy, what's really being said, it's in Proceedings."
— Admiral Stanley R. Arthur, U.S. Navy (Retired)
Member since 1983

More Quotes about Proceedings and the Naval Institute

"The naval professional's got some things to say—and a forum to say them in."
— Rear Admiral Daniel Bowler, USN (Ret.)
Member since 1970


"The Naval Institute is a fundamental link to so much of our past, and in many ways the hope of our future as well. It is the forum in which much of our intellectual capital is generated, and it facilitates so many of the truly important conversations involving the Sea Services of our nation and the world. The Naval Institute is the indispensable institution: if it did not exist, we'd have to invent it."
— Rear Admiral James Stavridis, USN
Member since 1982


"We are seagoing professionals, and Proceedings is our journal."
— Admiral Robert E Kramek, USCG (Retired), 20th Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard
Member since 1972


"The Naval Institute should jealously guard its role as prodder, conscience, and constructive safe haven for ideas that keep pushing the establishment not to be content to accept only the little challenges when the big challenges are out there."
— Admiral James M. Loy, U.S. Coast Guard (Retired),
21st Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard
Member since 1990


"For more than a century, the Naval Institute has provided readers the world over with extraordinary opportunities to learn from America's historic achievements."
— David McCullough, historian and author of Truman, John Adams and many other books


"Just returned from deployment to the Adriatic on DDG-71. Proceedings served us well throughout the six months by giving my wardroom something to talk about other than home, liberty, and the food. Thanks and well done!"
— D. M. Thomas, Jr. (then-commanding officer of the USS Ross)


"Through it all, from the Straits of Hormuz to Yokosuka and back again, the Naval Institute and Proceedings have been constant markers of our heritage, and profession."
— E. J. Quinn, U.S. Navy


"Without some such stimulus as the Institute, the Navy would be less like a profession and more like a trade; we would be less like artists, and more like artisans; we would have become too practical and narrow; we would have no broad vision of the Navy as a whole. . . ."
— Bradley Fiske, Rear Admiral, U.S. Navy, February 1919 Proceedings
