Episcopalians Back 2 AWOL Protesters in 1969
More than 400 Episcopal clergy and lay members at the church convention in South Bend marched to support two American servicemen who left their units in protest of the Vietnam War. The men, wounded in Vietnam, arrived from Hawaii with Clergy and Laymen Concerning About Vietnam. They sought moral sanctuary but clarified they did not seek church sanctuary.
