World Affairs Council of Hilton Head presents "Marshall & Churchill"

During World War II, Prime Minister Churchill and U.S. Army Chief of Staff Marshall were engaged as key players in a dozen wartime conferences that built the Anglo-American alliance and shaped the strategies that led to victory.

This presentation, which focuses on a series of letters exchanged between the two leaders beginning early in the war and continuing through Marshall’s death in 1959, reveals a lasting relationship of deep mutual respect. The fascinating letters run the gamut from details of the invasion of Normandy to congratulatory messages for honors won. Remarkable archival photographs are included in this presentation.
