Veterans working together for peace & justice through non-violence. Wage Peace!
Chapter Name Change
“Once in a while, someone with courage and a conscience rises from obscurity to change the course of history. Daniel Ellsberg was one of those people.”
On June 15th, 2024, VFP Chapter 92 held an online ceremony to rename the chapter in honor of Daniel Ellsberg.
It is hard to think of anyone in the last century who has made more of a sacrifice for peace, stood against the war machine, wrote about the existential danger of nuclear weapons, and was willing to be arrested over and over again for peace and justice.
Besides exposing the Pentagon Papers and nuclear secrets in his writings, Daniel was a veteran of the war in Viet Nam, a member of Veterans For Peace, and was a long time member of VFP Advisory Board.
This chapter is honored and challenged to have our name changed to Veterans For Peace Daniel Ellsberg Chapter 92, Seattle.
Want a veteran to speak at your school, church, or civic organization? Contact us: info@vfp92.org
Veterans are available to speak about their military experience, the Vietnam War, the Iraqi/Afganistan Wars, about being a veteran, and war in general.
We are available for Veteran's Day assemblies, Memorial Day events, or history classes about the wars since WW II.
