An evening talk at the Churchill War Rooms in which authors Damien Lewis and Rye Barcott discuss courage, leadership, service and sacrifice, from the Second World War to conflicts and politics today. It is held by Imperial War Museums as part of its IWM In Conversation series and draws on British and American stories of people who chose service when it came at a cost. Barcott, a Marine Corps veteran and New York Times bestselling author, will speak about his book 'Courage Can Save Us', while war reporter and historian Damien Lewis presents 'Behind Enemy Lines'. After the talk there is a Q&A, a book signing and the chance to explore the historic rooms.
