The real difference.
Recently Travis Bishop commented on a post about him a few days ago. One thing that he did bring up was the group called Disposable Warriors. Now don’t let the name fool you, this website is very different from it’s alleged counter parts that Travis linked it with in his post.
The person running the show is Former Sgt Chuck Luther He has been working with those with honest to good real issues and really seems to care about the each person. In his recent case shows that it working with Private First Class Jacob Wade He went AWOL during mid-tour leave. While while I still think AWOL is never the right thing to do, it is more sympathetic then others.
He said he made the decision after dealing with the effects of what he witnessed and experienced during his first six months in Iraq with the 1st Cavalry Division.
“Riding through town we got attacked,” he said. “I had a grenade go off five feet behind me, and only one other soldier that was with me made it into the truck, and we thought everyone was dead.”
So Chuck talks about how to face this challenge and this is the real difference.
“We have a large amount of AWOL cases; the rest are soldiers that are currently there that possibly if nobody intervened they would go AWOL,” Luther said.
He said he has handled more than 175 cases across the country so far with more than 70 active cases.
“It’s not something that can’t be taken over and fixed,” Luther said. “But there is help out there, and AWOL is seriously the last resort, and it shouldn’t ever get to that point.”
That is just it the real divide over who wants to help the person or help their cause. Something we already know about you James.

Chuck Luther rocks!
I can’t get past the site name, it screams left wing. My tolerance for things left is pretty much zero at this point.
Yes he does.
I can understand the name and why it may be seen in that light. But it is not the same.
