On Wed., Jul. 5, the Associated Press reported that the U.S.  Army  has filed three charges against First Lieutenant Ehren K. Watada: missing   movement, contempt toward officials, and conduct unbecoming an officer.

Supporters are planning to be at the Exit 119 overpass on I-5 at 5:00 p.m. on Thurs., Jul. 6, to make a strong show of support for Lt. Watada, who refused on Jun. 27 to obey an order to deploy to Iraq because he believes  the war there is illegal.
