Rock on, soldiers! Even in anonymity. A soldier is suing the government for keeping him in Iraq.
Check it:
Soldier Sues Military Over Extended Service.
Even though he is named "John Doe" if you are feeling particularly sneaky you could try to hunt him down by a process of elimination. The article states:
"The San Francisco-area man, who filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for Northern California, fought during the invasion of Iraq. Married with two young daughters, he is seeking a release from service when his Army National Guard term ends in December.
The suit names the plaintiff's commander as Capt. Kincy Clark, who heads Bravo Company of the First Battalion, 184th Infantry regiment based in Dublin, California. The unit reported for duty on Monday and is expected to train for several months before going to Iraq in February or March."
So much for being anonymous.
