Prepare to Disengage

Elaine Elinson, Daily Journal Corporation: "During the Vietnam War, GI dissent was both documented and nurtured by a slew of underground GI newspapers. Papers like 'Up Against the Bulkhead,' 'Harass the Brass' and 'About Face' were mimeographed and passed from base to base, hand to hand. These bold, clever, ragtag papers gave voice to the soldiers' rage against the injustices of the military and offered advice on everything from filing for conscientious-objector status to organizing anti-war protests." http://www.truthout.org/072609S?n
