A Wrinkle in the Long Gray Line: When Conscience and Convention Collided

A Wrinkle in the Long Gray Line is the story of Cary Donham, a West Point cadet who, after three successful years at the academy, came to terms with his religious and moral beliefs and applied for discharge from the Army as a conscientious objector. This well documented memoir is both a coming of age story as well as a lesson in the costs of standing up and speaking truth to power.
