| Military Families Speak Out Military Families Speak Out is an organization of people opposed to the war in Iraq and Afghanistan who have relatives or loved ones in the military. Formed by two families in November of 2002, we have contacts with military families throughout the United States, and in other countries around the world. Our membership currently includes over 4000 military families, with new families joining daily. As people with family members and loved ones in the military, we know that it is our loved ones who are, or have been, or will be on the battlefront. It is our loved ones who are at risk, who have been injured or who have died as a result of this war. It is our loved ones who are returning scarred from their experiences, who are suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). If you have family members or loved ones in the military and you are opposed to this war, JOIN us by sending an e-mail to mfso@mfso.org Click here to read an interview of MFSO co-founder, Nancy Lessin. |
