Several former members of the military in the Greensboro area have been meeting for almost a year. Recently, we were officially chartered by the national organization as Chapter 173 of Veterans For Peace.
VFP was founded in 1985 by 10 U.S. veterans in response to the global
nuclear arms race and U.S. military interventions in Central America. It
grew to more than 8,000 members in the buildup to the U.S. invasion of
Iraq in 2003 with veteran and associate members in every U.S. state and
several countries, with more than 120 chapters across the nation and in
Vietnam and the UK.
VFP members are actively engaged in campaigns to help bring about a
clearer understanding of the cost of war and the U.S. military operations and occupations throughout the world, and to promote truth in military recruitment efforts in schools.
Please consider joining Veterans For Peace and our local chapter.
Unfortunately, war is good for certain businesses.....
