Produced by BBC
When I joined the Air Force in early 1971, after my training, I was sent to Travis AFB in California for my permanent duty. It was an airlift base for the war so there was lots of anti-war organizing outside the base gates and inside the barracks.
As it turned out my first roommate was an organizer in the GI resistance movement and meetings would often be held in our room at night.
I came into the Air Force as a Young Republican for Nixon, but being in that room and reading their newsletter called 'Travesty' changed by life. It was there that I became a peace activist.
Thus this is one of my all-time favorite documentaries.
Enjoy it.
