Based on extensive interviews with each of the six, the book relates why they enlisted, their experiences in training and in early missions, their tours of combat, and what has happened to them since returning home. The compelling stories of this diverse cross section of the military recount how each journey to Iraq began with the sincere desire to do good. Matthew Gutmann and Catherine Anne Lutz show how each individual's experiences led to new moral and political understandings and ultimately to opposing the war.ACLS Fellows' Publications.Iraq veterans speak out against the warIraq War, 2003-2011Protest movementsUnited StatesVeteransPolitical activityUnited StatesIraq War, 2003-2011Protest movementsVeteransPolitical activity956.7044/31Gutmann Matthew C.1953-702432Lutz Catherine792623MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910975414903321Breaking ranks1772502UNINA
