In person:
PABLO PAREDES
Pablo Paredes, a Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class, refused to board his ship
bound for Iraq in December of 2004. He showed up on the pier in San
Diego wearing a t-shirt that read: "Like a Cabinet Member, I Resign."
The Navy announced in March that Pablo will face a special
court-martial, the military equivalent of a civilian misdemeanor trial.
He faces a maximum of one year in jail, a forfeiture of pay, reduction
in rank, and a bad-conduct discharge if he is convicted. Pablo
continues to speak out despite the potential punishment from the Navy.
Also appearing:
SERGE LOUCHNIKOV (Marine who fought in the initial invasion of Iraq in
2003)
