Friends in the Struggla!
The New Mobilization Committee has formed a Task Force to help
GIs in their extremely important struggle against the war, the
military and the government. A GI questionnaire was mailed to
each GI group for which we had an address, asking then if they
■would support a day of nationally co-ordinated activities at
military installations operated by the United States government.
The response was overwhelmingly in favor of such a day and May 16th,
ftrmed Forces Day, was decided upon as the most desirable date.
Traditionally, U.S. military bases are "open" on this date, making
actions there much more effective. Also, GIs will be on "holiday
routine" and thus more able to participate.
Thus far, we have heard from over fifteen bases across the country
whose GI groups have begun working to make May 16th a tremendous
success for the GI anti-war movement. We see the purpose of this
date as being primarily twofold: 1) To show the world the true
sentiment of the GIs of the United States - the men and women
who are forced to fight the national leaders' wars; 2) To provide
a visible action upon which GI organizing can flourish at an even
greater pace at every base.
The enclosed leaflet has been sent out to our key contacts across th-
country. It. will give you on idea of the variety of actions being
planned and their wide distribution. The Mew Mobilization has been
extremely successful in the past in mustering huge numbers of
people to demonstrate their distaste of Amerikan policy. For May
16th, the New Mobe will be utilizing this same ability to come to
the support of the GI movement, a movement which ranks the highest
in enraging and frightening the leaders of this country.
«
We urge you to consider seriously the possibility of working with
GIs in your area for actions around this date. The presence of
actions on May 16th in Countries outside of the legal territory
of the United States which would center upon the U.S. troops there
would bring to the people's attention the reality of U.S. imperialisi
much more vividly than mere words can.
Should you decide that such an action is both feasible and desirable
