"Before You Enlist!" is a 15-minute film that provides "the real deal on joining the military" as told by veterans from Iraq to Vietnam, their family members and other young people who've dealt with recruiters. Produced by Telequest of Princeton NJ with support from the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), Veterans For Peace, the Coalition for Peace Action, the Puffin Foundation and others, it is ready for viewing (and download) via YouTube and Google Video.

Details on ordering will be posted soon at BeforeYouEnlist.org and ASFCstore.org.
Many thanks to the participants who shared their stories, and to the many individuals and organizations who contributed time, expertise and resources to this production.
