In this episode Heston chats to Dan about his book Courage on Fire.

As a self confessed non-reader of books, Heston finished Courage to Fire within 3 days - butchering it with a highlighter and page folds in the process. Appreciating every ounce of honesty, authenticity and relatability that it offered.

Without giving away all the juicy parts (that you need to go and read for yourself). They dissect some key topics from the book like:

  • Death and facing the unknown
  • From the battlefield to a rooftop pool in vegas - decompression disasters
  • Navigating the loss of a teammate during battle
  • Drawing on the loss of friends as inspiration and purpose to keep going, in the darkest of days after service.
  • The healing powers of the Australian War Memorial
  • The purpose of writing Dan’s book.
