As we travel from Fayetteville, NC to the Gulf Coast area, we will stop in key military cities, in an attempt to reach out to active duty military. Veterans For Peace, IVAW, and many individual signers of the Appeal for Redress, will travel to six military towns in the southeastern US. In each town, we will hold an event for active duty military personnel and their families, where we will energetically engage them in discussions regarding the absurdity of this war and encourage them to sign the Appeal for Redress.
