A call to action
Scott Johnson

Peter Hegseth is the Minnesota native and Princeton alumnus who served as an officer with the 101st Airborne in Iraq. He now heads up Vets for Freedom, an Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans group dedicated to supporting the troops and their mission in Iraq. They will be heading en masse to Capitol Hill on July 17, and deserve the support of all of us. If you’re an Iraq or Afghanistan vet, please consider joining them. If not, please consider supporting them. In a message this morning, Pete makes the following points:

1) We have the support of numerous other vets organizations — American Legion, Troops Need You, Gathering of Eagles, Appeal for Courage, Move America Forward, Troop Talk, and more.

2) If we do this right, Iraq and Afghanistan veterans —- and the blog and talk radio communities -- could transform the Iraq war debate, much like they did for immigration. And this event could be a starting point.

3) We need vets to show up — despite time constraints and financial constraints...it’s too important.
