Court Martial of American Officer for refusing to serve in Iraq

Kevin Sikes interviewed the only American Officer to refuse duty in Iraq. The young Lieutenant faces six years in jail, a Dishonourable Discharge, and forfeiture of all pay and allowances if incarcerated.

His father sought sanctuary in Peru by serving in the Peace Corps and supports his son's stand against what the Son says is an illegal war....thus making his orders to Iraq with the 3rd Stryker Brigade an illegal order.

The officer attempted to resign his commission but was refused.
