I figure with the possibility of the wars heating up, now would a good time to prepare lit/resources to demoralize military memebers and give advice on how to get out early.

Any one got any materials or links related to this?

Edit: found this which might be useful for legal avenues of quitting early

    I actually do have some resources for this since I’ve done it myself. I’m on mobile and will try to find more later, but off the top of my head, this is a big one: https://girightshotline.org/ A big part of the military’s strategy for keeping people in is scaring soldiers with stories about how getting kicked out will ruin their life, and this group can help them navigate UCMJ stuff.

    Not sure how active they are these days, but IVAW used to be a good resource. I’d also be curious if Mike Prysner has a website somewhere with this kind of info, and there are probably other anti-war vet groups that might provide some useful resources on this.

    I’ll come back to this post later, but fucking with military recruitment/retention is cool and good and I’m glad you’re bringing this up.
