DESCRIPTION:  Please share this information.  Hope you will join us in this important 
 and fulfilling work on the GI Rights  hotline!  A crucial element to 
 slowing the military machine is helping individual Gis  get out of the 
 military!  Since 1948, the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors 
 has supported  individuals in their resistance and opposition to war.  As 
 you know there has long been an economic draft in place, creating an  
 environment where poor people see the military as their only route to a  
 paycheck and an education.  When they learn that they have been lied to by  
 recruiters and that they are opposed to the military, men and women in the  
 military have almost no place to turn.  The G.I. Rights hotline ‹ 
 800-394-9544 ‹ is one place that they can go to  find information about 
 discharges and support for their decisions.  The numbers of calls are 
 rising and we need more counselors to volunteer on  the hotline.  Tasks 
 include answering phone calls, responding to e-mail  inquiries, making 
 referrals to relevant organizations and individuals when  needed.  
 Volunteers make an initial commitment of one year of at least 2  hours of 
 volunteering a week.  The next Oakland training is coming up:  September 25 
 from 9am to 4pm.  Call for more information or to register for the 
 training:  510-465-1617  or  888-231-2226.  Or send an email to 
 steve@objector.org.  >   >    Check out the web site for more information 
 about the hotline, the  organizations involved in the hotline, and for
