TRAIN & FIGHT TO WIN: AN EXPLORATION OF GLOBAL SPECIAL OPERATIONS FORCES

The only program of its kind at an American university, the Norwich University Military Writers’ Symposium convenes authors and experts in the fields of military history, intelligence, and current affairs to offer important perspectives on pressing global concerns. This year’s theme is “Train & Fight to Win: An Exploration of Global Special Operation Forces.” The symposium will emphasize Norwich University’s unique connection to the Special Operations community and feature popular authors, former operators, and other experts to discuss a variety of critical topics related to the field and the Norwich community at large. https://www.norwich.edu/military-writers-symposium

The event will also highlight the 2023 William E. Colby Military Writers’ Award winner, Charles E. Stanley, Jr. for his book Lost Airmen: The Epic Rescue of U.S. WWII Bomber Crews Stranded Behind Enemy Lines. This award is presented annually to a first solo work of fiction or nonfiction that has made a major contribution to the understanding of military history, intelligence operations or international affairs.
