Open to active duty, veterans, family, spouses, and concerned private citizens and health professionals.

Seeking Veteran Advocates, Veterans, Family Members, Concerned Citizens, Health Professionals, Clergy, and Activists for active opposition to investigational new drug testing on US troops, opposition of the Feres Doctrine that allows for it to happen, and active opposition to the continued force fed anthrax vaccine program on active duty US troops without informed consent or the ability to refuse the six shot vaccination program without facing severe punishment including court marshal, loss of rank and/or pay, etc.

This is a new discussion board and online think tank for veterans from all branches and eras of service who are seeking to make a positive change in the system and to help each other with moral support and to actively seek health and claim info help for each other.

This board is owned and operated by Tom & Caren Trefts in cooperation with the Backwoods Vets who are represented on this board by Moderator JJ " Paul " Jenson, and fellow Backwoods Vets & other Decorated Vietnam Veterans Hawkeye, Al Cole, among others.

Tom is a very sick (and we use this term broadly)Gulf War vet still in the process of banging his head against the wall with his VA, SSI, & SSD claims and author of this dribble. His Lovely Wife Caren Patricia Trefts is his partner for life, nurse, and would-be editor.

Caren is the daughter of an Agent Orange vet who was a tank commander in Vietnam in the late 60's.

Tom, Caren, JJ and others on this board are outraged by the way that veterans rights have been violated over the years and the deplorable delays and the purposeful roadblocks that keep veterans with needy families from getting their benefits which they so richly deserve for putting their health and bodies on the line in the service of our great country.

Here are some things we are currently working on:

IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR HEALTH PROBLEMS WERE ADVERSLY AFFECTED BY THE VACCINATIONS YOU RECEIVED IN THE MILITARY, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO LODGE A FORMAL COMPLAINT.

The VAERS reporting system is a passive nationwide vaccine problem reporting area.

The FDA link is more political in nature and is asking for public commentary before a judge in Washington either stops, delays or allows the program to continue in one form or another.

Join us for what promises to be a committed effort to support the rights and need for quality healthcare for our brother & sister veterans in a decidedly friendly online environment.

It is our desire to fight for the cause that is just and keep the pressure up on those that would seek to hinder our collective path.

If this sounds like something that you can really get behind, then join in today and help us make a better future together.

GOD BLESS THE USA

GOD BLESS OUR VETS

The US military admitted on Saturday that its soldiers in Afghanistan had burned the bodies of two dead Taliban guerrillas and taunted insurgents about it, claiming the desecration was for 'hygienic reasons'.

From Information Clearing House

For the past year, beginning with the Senate testimony of Alberto Gonzales, US attorney general, in January, the Bush administration has claimed the power to subject detainees to “cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment”, as long as the victim is a non-American held outside the US. To provide a locale for such mistreatment, it has established secret detention centres in Eastern Europe and elsewhere.

Nothing has appeared in the mainstream media about Specialist Benson of the 101st Airborne who has lost his legs, or about Sergeant Akers of the Michigan National Guard who is horribly burned. They are not on the front pages.

The occupation didn’t work. Only the order of retreat remains to be settled.
