One of the teach-ins I attended at Camp Casey was conducted by a Veterans for Peace activist who assists American soldiers when they refuse to go to Iraq and go to Canada instead. According to him there are presently 311 American soldiers in exile in Canada. (You won't find it in the media reports.)
That's a far larger number of deserters than has been reported in any media, and the military has had recruitment and retention troubles, too, but such problems have yet to make a dent in the military's ability to deploy troops in Iraq, as far as I know. -- Yoshie <http://montages.blogspot.com/> <http://mrzine.org> <http://monthlyreview.org/>
