Ten Conscientious Objections to War: Being A Peaceful Warrior In A War Against War

This is a desperate search from within the US Military for moral and ethical justice. Despite battles with cultural angst during the War On Terror, Professor Walton Stowell joined the US Military. Architect turned basic-enlisted-grunt went from a spiritual artistic and environmental quest, to a more aggressive head-on confrontation with war pigs! He sacrificed his Pagan mohawk and dreadlocks to the gods, and vowed to seek out war-mongers and challenge them to rethink their arrogance. To do so he would summon the emotions of death by violence, and communicate the historic results of such cycles. Whether or not he succeeded, he was prepared to be sent off and simply die in combat, as another forgotten casualty with no remembered message beyond "he died for his Country". If he lived, he would never stop fighting for the freedom to be a Peaceful Patriot, and a Wise Warrior. This non-fiction book is the official report turned in by SRA Stowell to the United States Air Force with his Conscientious Objector Application in 2008. He was the first and only Airman in West Virginia (at least since Vietnam) to request release from duty as an official objector to "all military industrial wars". After 5 years of service he was given an honorable discharge, and does not regret his choices. By making this book public the author shares that it is not only possible to legally object to the military industrial complex, but that it was actually done.
