War Hero Sent To Prison For Protesting US Army’s ‘School of Assassins’. Former medal of honor winner given one-year sentence for civil disobedience at the School of the Americas at Fort Benning, which trains Latin American military officers. “I consider it an honor to be going to prison as a result of an act of conscience in response

to a moral imperative that impelled and obligated me to speak for voices silenced by

graduates of the School of the Americas, a military institution that has brought shame to

our country and the U.S. Army.”
