This is an important book to read at this time in history. It documents well and thoroughly the dissent among the GI's during the Vietnam War Era. Many events we haven't heard of. Many we have forgotten and are reminded about when we read this book. It reminds us of some of the dissenters in the Iraq war. The introduction by the ever-eloquent and important voice of Howard Zinn puts things in perspective.
