[Celtjew Libertarian]

I read an article by a (possibly a former) Quaker in Soldier of Fortune (want real on the ground reports from overseas by the people ducking the lead read that mag.) that more than half of the draft age Quakers enlisted after Dec. 7th 1941 because even pacifist knew you couldn't hug Hitler and Tojo enough to change their minds.

My father-in-law was a Quaker (or from one of the related pacifist groups), who broke with his family and enlisted in the Navy, after Pearl Harbor.

I've also read -- and this was a while ago -- about a Quaker who enlisted as an unarmed medic. He received the Medal of Honor for rescuing injured Marines from the front lines of one of the island battles against the Japanese; but he never carried a weapon.

I think I read that also. Maybe on the MoH website.
