On Saturday December 15th, an action called Not Home for the Holidays was held at the military recruitment center on 41st avenue in Capitola. This was the second event of its kind designed to draw attention to the thousands of enlisted service people who will not be home for the holidays because they are on one of the hundreds of military bases that the US has worldwide that are used to support the US's military heavy foreign policy. To help draw attention to this situation, the Raging Grannies sang their songs of peace and justice. The following MP3 file gives you a little taste of what the recruiters didn't want to hear. The clip is just under 10 minutes and includes several songs.
