SIR!  NO SIR! -- ILLUSTRATED SCREENPLAY & SCREENCAP GALLERY

I got out of the military in 1966. I got out because of the things I saw, the things I was doing, and the reasons that we were given for doing them.  It was a personal protest. It was just me getting out of the service. There was no movement to join.

DR. HOWARD LEVY, DERMATOLOGIST, U.S. ARMY: I found the war in Vietnam more and more repulsive.

And I felt that I just couldn't be a part of it.

 Eventually I said, "Look, I'm not training you guys anymore, I don't agree with what you're doing, I think it's immoral, I think it's medically unethical, and I just stopped.

Threw them out of the clinic. It took a few weeks for the army to catch up with that and when they did they invited me into the commanding officer's office and said, "Look, what are you doing here?" And I told them exactly what I was doing, I said, "I'm not training them." And they said, "Well, you should know the consequences of that." And I said, "I'm perfectly aware of the consequences of it, I'm not training them." At that point it was obvious that I was going to be court-martialed and a few days later I got the court-martial notice.
