Discharged Veteran Sues Over Iraq Deployment
From Times Wire Reports
A veteran of the 1991 Persian Gulf War is suing the Army after it ordered him to report for duty 13 years after he was honorably discharged from active duty and eight years after he left the Reserves. Kauai resident David Miyasato, 34, received word of his reactivation in September, but says he believes he completed his eight-year obligation to the Army long ago.
His federal lawsuit, filed in Honolulu, seeks a declaration that he has fulfilled his obligations.
