The founders of the Naval War College in the late 19th century would have understood it: gain control of the sea and then use it for some other, larger purpose in war (such as blockading an enemy nation or assaulting it from the sea).
Naval officers needed to be familiar with these techniques and with the ways they were used in the management of national defense.
A later (and still ongoing) critique was that the war colleges (and not just the Naval War College, in particular) did not pay enough attention to the doctrinal implications of joint operations and to the intellectual and organizational keys to the success of joint military operations.
