Military Families Speak Out is an organization of people who are opposed to war in Iraq and who have relatives or loved ones in the military. Their membership currently includes over 2,400 military families, with new families joining daily. |
| The organization includes men and women veterans from World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, other conflicts and peacetime veterans. Their collective experience tells us wars are easy to start and hard to stop and that those hurt are often the innocent. Thus, other means of problem solving are necessary. |
