The source idea for the Quadrennial Defense Review (QFR) was the U.S. Department of Defense’s Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) model. For several decades, the QDR model has served as a vehicle for the U.S. military to reexamine shifts in military strate­gy and changes in organization tactics and capabilities. Similarly, the intention of the QFR is to evaluate current wildland fire management strategies and capabilities against best estimates of the long-term (10 to 20 year) future environment. The first QFR was prepared in 2005, with a subsequent strategic assess­ment process conducted every 4 years thereafter. Recently, the final report for the third iteration of the QFR was released.
