Today we rallied outside of McNair, in Washington DC, near the office of Major General Jeffrey Buchanan. Gen. Buchanan is the “Convening Authority” in the court martial of Bradley Manning. He can reduce any sentence resulting from a conviction, by whatever amount he chooses. While he reigns over Bradley’s destiny, we’ll be calling upon him to do the right thing.

Geoff Mallard, chair of Iraq Veterans Against the War board of directors, tells how it is hard for service members to speak the truth without being prosecuted.
