Mennonite Service Agency Added To List of Conscientious Objector Alternatives

Last month, the Selective Service System added one additional alternative for conscientious objectors if the draft should ever be reinstated. According to the Army's website, on April 20 the Selective Service System signed the first new Alternative Service Employer Network agreement in 25 years. It added Mennonite Voluntary Service, an agency of the Mennonite Church USA, to the list of civilian alternative service choices for CO's. [Thanks to God and Country blog for the lead.]
