Columbia, SC: GIs United, 1969. Two 8.5x11 inch mimeographed sheets stapled together, light handling and toning. Press release on the cases of five Black GIs who had been penalized for antiwar activities, part of a group that became known as the Fort Jackson Eight. GIs United started as a Black and Puerto Rican club at Fort Jackson for listening to Malcolm X tapes, then opened to white members and included Young Socialist Alliance activists. They were put in the stockade, resulting in a concerted effort by outside activists to support their case.
