Abstract
"This Just In" piece on Perry O'Brien, a 25-year-old army veteran from Peaks Island, who served in Afghanistan in 2003. O'Brien, who has since been discharged from the army as a conscientious objector, is the testimonial team leader for Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW). IVAW will sponsor Winter Soldier 2008, where more than 100 Iraq and Afghanistan veterans will testify that abuses such as those at Abu Ghraib prison are not isolated incidents, but extreme examples of widespread misconduct. Winter Soldier 2008 is scheduled to take place in March at the University of Maryland.
