My wife's friend's husband, an arial crane operator, was just deployed to the Gulf. Our son's friend's mom recently left the active Naval reserve (after being deployed abroad foreight months last year)(, and is currently on inactive standby status. The AFSC has some useful literature on how to claim CO status; so does VVAW. jks

More importantly, how many of you all could suggest options if someone in the military wants to get out or wants to file a conscientious objector claim? I will post a couple options that come to mind later, but I want to see what you all come up first!

It seems a tad inconsistent to expect people who take the Pope and the Dalai Lama seriously to start fragging people. It also seems condescending to fling Michael Albert at people who might, if allowed to speak for themselves, articulate quite clearly how we could support them in situations nice lefty mailing list readers may have no clue about.
