The evidence against Pat was hearsay and the Navy had tried to hold the court martial in the Philipines to insure @ conviction. Besides the incident Pat was charged with, the pro- ceedings revealed that two dozen other acts of sabotage took place on the Ranger in a five month period of 1972. He was refused bail from the beginning and spent ten and a: half months in the brig. ‘HW 55077 Docld:32989534 Page 38

Aun inronmaricy Compan Dear Brothers & Sisters- _ ee " Cis aed, The next general meeting of VVAW/WSO is Saturday, August 25th at 12 noon. The place is the Storefront on 363 Connecticut Street. If you haven't seen the Storefront yet, this could be a good time. It's where the big black on white sign says "Veteran's Self-Help Center." We need any feedback we can get as to whether or not you've been getting these mailings on time for meetings and events. We had the picnic last month, and a general meeting right after that, and we ‘found that 9 out of 10 members we talked to didn't get their mailing until after at least the picnic. We got the mailing out on Tuesday A.M. prior to the picnic on Sunday. This has béen happening more and more. Either the post office is totally breaking down: or our mail is being Singled- out and- delayed. Let us. know how often. you get maifings, when and whether you think-yours might have been tampered with. A lot of members have. stated that they want to become more active ‘but can't always make the general meetings. Under the nore or less autonomous committee structure we have now, you can work on a committee that most closely reflects your interests. ‘Committees in need of people are Fund Raising; Veterans’ Affairs; Community Action, Political Educa- tion; and Amnesty/Anti-militarism. We also need -people willing to sell "Winter Soldier". downtown in thé mornings. And we also need people to pitch in with some of thé shitwork like mailings and: correcting addresses, etc. If you'can work in any of these areas, contact us . and we'll put the right people. in ‘touch. ; Winter Soldier"; the- national VVAW/WSO paper ‘is a. “Honthly that's in it's fifth issue now. We haven't had the bread to send every local member a copy, but we hope to soon. Meanwhile, we have back copies of every issue at the storefront...” wee *The Attica Defense Committee will ‘be Leading the community in-a --series of events to commemorate the 2nd anniversary of the Attica up- ‘rising and massacre. The degree to which we will participate will be discussed at the meeting. Tentative schedule: Sept. 9th, Sun.~ parties to celebrate takeover Sept. 10, 11, 12- workshops in community. Possibly one to be held in the Storefront. Sept. 13, Thurs.~ mass demo and rally downtown. Everyone is urged to participate as an individual and in whatever organizational activity is decided upon. Also, a VVAW/WSO national coordinator may be in town then, so it will be a good chance to get a sense of the national strength bo Vi 7 h ofthe , ie Pe Ration.

. . é , ‘ ec Film and Speaker: In conjunction with the activities planned for the second anniversary of the Attica uprising, we will have a film about Attica and one of the Attica Brothers will speak on what happened at Attica as well as defense efforts being made on their behalf. This will be at the Storefront on Tuesday, Sept. 11 at 7:30. Gainesville About the biggest thing VVAW/WSO faced since the signing of the peace accords last January has been the Gainesville 8 conspiracy trial. Almost every mailing this year has said something about it. To many of us, ..though, they may still seem kind of remote. Nine members from this chapter were in Gainesville from July 30 to August 5 for the national VVAW/WSO demonstrations and three of us got to spend a day in court and hear the opening statements. ; The demos were a little smaller than we'd hoped for, but we were all impressed by the high degree of solidarity showed theré and the unity of purpose. VVAW/WSO, as recently as a year ago, wasn*t much more than a name a lot of vets adhered to.-- It described a condition. Now’ - it's really an organization. Sometimes we feel a little isolated and wonder what's coming down in this country and it would be: good to re- member this. We mentioned "Winter Soldier" earlier in this newsletter. That's new this year. Another project is Operation County Fair. VVAW/WSO members are helping to build a community medical clinic- and to train people to staff it- in an extreme poverty. area of Alabama. The idea came out of some contacts made last year at the demos around the Republican convention. In fact, food and medical supplies left c _ over from the Gainesville demo went to County Fair.Another project is the NOSCAM project out of the Ohio region. It's directed at active duty” _ GI's and publishes "Camp News." Another is the PVS Clearing House in Milwaukee for the dissemination of PVS info to chapters. Also the VA oo . ‘Clearing House in Chicago. VVAW/WSO is also -in the forefront of the °° ‘amnesty movement. ; We could go on, but the point is we're.no longer a loose handful of people - we're.an organization. that's growing and that’s starting to get into some serious activity. Too often brothers and sisters aren't aware of what's going on in the rest of the country. In future news- ‘letters, we'll try to include information’ about some of these projects.
