The idea was first conceived by Howard Levy an ex-US Army doctor who had just been released from 26 months in Fort Leavenworth military prison for refusing orders to train Green Beret medics on their way to the Vietnam War. Levy convinced actress Jane Fonda who recruited a number of actors entertainers musicians and others including the actors Donald Sutherland Peter Boyle Garry Goodrow and Michael Alaimo comedian and civil rights activist Dick Gregory and soul and R&B singer Swamp Dogg Jerry Williams Jr. Alan Myerson of San Francisco improv comedy group The Committee agreed to direct while cartoonist and author Jules Feiffer and playwrights Barbara Garson and Herb Gardner wrote songs and skits for the show. Fred Gardner the originator of the antiwar GI Coffeehouse movement became the Tour's "stage manager and liaison to the coffeehouse staffs.' At various times other actors writers musicians comedians and entertainers were involved. The United States Servicemen's Fund USSF with Dr. Levy as one of its principle organizers became the official sponsor of the tour. The anti-Vietnam War USSF promoted free speech within the US military funded and supported independent GI newspapers and coffeehouses and worked to defend the legal rights of GIs. Sponsorship was later taken over by a group called the Entertainment Industry for Peace & Justice EIPJ."

5233U.S. General. Head of all US Forces during the Vietnam War. Great content. Headed: "Gen. William Westmoreland - Commander of U.S. forces in Vietnam - CNN Interview." In part: "We had in fact replaced the French in that regard -- and we had advisers down to battalion level within the Vietnamese military structure. The problem at that time was not an invasion of the area by the North Vietnamese but it was the erosion of the effectiveness of government brought about by the so-called "VC" -- the Viet Cong. It was not open warfare . At the outset the President made the statement that he would not geographically broaden the war and that meant that military actions were confined to the territory of South Vietnam. The enemy was not operating under such restraints.That gave the enemy a sanctuary. We were winning on the battlefield but whether we were winning strategically is another matter." Signed in black ink " W. Westmoreland". Great content and in excellent condition. unknown books
