Iraq Veterans Against the War member Zach Choate in his Class-A Uniform leads a press conference on the steps of the senate building at the launch of the Operation Recovery Campaign. Zach spoke about his untreated injuries during his deployment and why he felt all service members deserved the right to heal.
At the public announcement of Operation Recovery, Maggie Martin, with a platoon of other IVAW members, marched from Walter Reed Medical Center to the Capital, where they put the Senate Armed Services Committee on notice for the deployment of traumatized troops.
