Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Conscientious Objector Prior to my detail to the Board of Inquiry I had been reviewing, in the Office of the Judge Advocate General, the records of trial by court-martial of conscientious objectors. Although I had never set eyes on a conscientious objector, I firmly believed that they were, as a class, shirkers and cowards. My first trip as a member of the Board upset most of my ideas regarding the objector. I began to see him in a new light. And an examination of over eight hundred objectors in twenty widely distributed military camps and posts has convinced me that they are, as a rule, sincere - cowards and shirkers, in the commonly accepted sense, they are not. Their sincerity, however, makes them no less a national problem. What follows is an attempt to present the objector as he appears to a member of the Board. The opinions expressed are not to be taken as those of the Board or of my colleagues on the Board. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
