Dan Winters
Dan Winters recently returned from New Orleans, where he worked in support and relief efforts with Veterans for Peace; at age 17, Winters joined the Army for 3 years and served in Korea and Germany following the wars. Dan Winters is also a veteran of the peace movement and has made several trips to Iraq, most recently in January and February of 2003. In 2001, he attempted to transport medical relief across the Israeli border into the West Bank, but his relief goods were confiscated by Israeli authorities.
Dan Winters has a son in the U.S. Army who has served in Iraq; Dan’s presence on this tour calls us to keep in mind the deep personal cost of war and the value of human life, in the interest of all those who must live with this conflict.
