Peter's journey from militarism to active pacifism is covered by himself and recounted by an admirer, Linda le Tendre on her blog "Waging Peace"
http://www.dailygazette.com/weblogs/letendre/
Here is an excerpt:
"While in Vietnam I attended Roman Catholic Mass regularly and on occasion would go to confession, as I had been brought up to do. As a dutiful young Marine who followed orders well, I had no idea that my work in Vietnam was helping to bring about the deaths of some two million people there, maim and displace countless others, and severely damage and degrade the local environment. That sad realization came to me only much later. While in Vietnam I operated under the influence of a training film my fellow recruits and I viewed in boot camp, which justified U. S. involvement in the war as a defense against communist aggression. (We were told the communists were struggling to extend their “evil empire.”) Like millions of other soldiers down through the course of history, we were taught by the power elite to look at ourselves as heroic patriots willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our native land and its cherished ideals."
