CHESTERTOWN, MD—Nathaniel Fick, whose 2005 book
about his service in Afghanistan and Iraq, One Bullet Away: The Making of a
Marine Officer, made the New York Times best-seller list, will visit
Washington College on Thursday, September 20, to talk about leadership. Now
Chief Executive Officer of the Center for a New American Security, Fick will speak
at 4:30 p.m. in Decker Theatre, Gibson Center for the Arts, on the College
campus, 300 Washington Avenue. The talk, titled “One Bullet Away: Leadership Lessons from
Afghanistan and Iraq,” is free and open to the public.
One Bullet Away details Fick’s war experiences and reveals to the
civilian reader how the Corps goes about selecting and training their elite
Recon Marines. From his decision to join the Marines while studying at
Dartmouth, through his grueling training, to his time fighting overseas, Fick
“does not shrink from the truth –- however personal or unpleasant,” wrote a
reviewer for Publisher’s Weekly. The result is an absorbing,
thought-provoking memoir that The Military Times named one
of the “Best Military Books of the Decade.”
One Bullet became required reading for officers
deploying to Afghanistan and Iraq. It also was the “First-Year Book” for
Washington College’s Class of 2016; the students read the book prior to
arriving on campus, and then met in small groups to discuss it.
Fick’s writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington
Post, Foreign Policy, and Forbes. He serves on the Board of Directors
of the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation, a group that provides education
funds for the children of Marines killed in action. He is also a member of the
Council on Foreign Relations and the International Institute for Strategic
Studies.
A book signing will follow the September 20 talk.
