Northwest Vets for Peace host a special Membership Edition of this show. Their guests are Jose Vasquez, from Iraq Veterans Against the War and Aaron Glantz, co-author with Iraq Veterans Against the War of the new book Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan.
In spring 2008, inspired by the Vietnam-era Winter Soldier hearings, Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) gathered veterans outside Washington, DC, to tell the truth about the U.S. occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq.
Here are the words, images, and documents of this historic event. Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan preserves and honors the brave contributions of Winter Soldier's participants, to ensure that people around the world remember their stories and struggles.
