A Mother Fights for a Soldier Who Said No to War
Carolyn Ho is a mother on a mission. She came to Washington in mid-December to build support for her son, Army 1st Lt. Ehren Watada, the first commissioned officer to publicly refuse deployment to Iraq. Barring some kind of miracle, he will be court-martialed on February 5 at Fort Lewis, Washington, about 45 miles south of Seattle. If convicted, he could be sent to military prison for six years. There will be a pre-trial hearing today.
