A group of protesters — including veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and an army wife — protested in Killeen, Texas, against the deployment of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment to Iraq — and temporarily blocked buses carrying soldiers. They were beaten out of the roadway by cops with dogs and automatic weapons, but were not arrested. The posting includes statements from some of the vets who participated.
