Sorry If This Is A Dupe... Just Wanted To Find Out If ANYONE Has Seen
Sir! No! Sir yet. Tonight on Sundance Channel they are featuring War Resistance documentaries and I've only spent a small amount of time here at DU for the past couple of days.

I used to check in a lot more often, and I still do and post from time to time... but not like I used to. I was at Ft. Hood, TX when they had the Anti-War demonstration in '68 and my heart actually started beating faster than usual. So many of us have very vivid memories of the "time" back then, but I wasn't aware of this DVD.

I just ordered a copy of it so I can show it to as many people as possible and made a donation too! I may be behind the times here, but JUST IN CASE there are others out there like me who weren't aware, you might find it VERY INTERESTING to visit the web site. http://www.sirnosir.com and perhaps buy the DVD or make a contribution.

They are trying to get donations to send copies of the DVD to current soldiers. I can't wait to receive mine.

Again, sorry if this is a dupe but I just feel the need to spread the word. Going back to watch another documentary being shown right now about Iraq! And I will probably buy it if it's for sale too! Blowing my wad here, but so very important!

3. Check Out The Other Documentaries Too! I Watched The Ground
Troop or War... can't believe I forgot exactly, but the Iraq Vets Against The War were featured in it. I'm going to check out the same web site to see if it's listed.

Posted at the other thread... IRS made a mistake on my return and I got a pretty big refund today in the mail. I WAS shocked, but what better way to get the word out to others? I'll use some of the money to push the Agenda a bit!!

I've been thinking about getting a group together for something like this and this stuff will serve my purpose well! I even got paid "interest" on my over-payment!! Haven't quite gotten over it yet!

2. Yes, it was excellent
shattered the myth about "spitting" on the returning Vets

Sounds like Iraq all over again vis a vis Abu Grahib

4. That "Spitting" Stuff Has Been Out There Forever... I Was So GLAD
to hear that guy talk about it!! I NEVER saw it myself, but sure heard it enough. His case can't be denied because as he said, civilians weren't allowed on ANY Tarmacs where bodies were being returned to.

None that I know of unless it was family.

5. I'm giving a copy to my local library
It's very well done -- goes quite well with the doc on John Kerry, "Going Upriver", which features a lot of interviews with veterans.
