The Australian Defense Force Academy (ADFA) is a military academy in Australia . It is located in the capital Canberra in the Campbell district. It trains prospective officers of the Australian Defense Force (ADF) (consisting of the Royal Australian Navy , the Australian Army and the Royal Australian Air Force ) militarily and academically.
