THIS WEBSITE is dedicated to those Soldiers, Marines, Sailors and Airpersons who refuse to fight in illegal wars or to commit war crimes. These young men and women face persecution because they are following their consciences and obeying international law. They need and deserve our support, and we need them. When even more soldiers say no, the wars will be over.
Are you or a member of your family trying to get out of the military? Have you already taken an unauthorized absence (AWOL/UA)? Are you facing racism or sexual harrassment within the military? If you want to know your rights and your options, call the toll free GI Rights Hotline, staffed by a network of volunteers from nonprofit, nongovernmental military counseling agencies. And check out their website at http://girightshotline.org/
