Sir! No Sir!

is a 2005 documentary by Displaced Films about the anti-war movement within the ranks of the United States Armed Forces during the Vietnam War.

[5]The film brings to life the history of the GI Movement and the stories of those who were part of it through interviews with veterans plus hitherto unseen archival material.

Archival materials include news reports from local and national television broadcasts, images from newspapers and magazines, and Super-8 and 16mm film footage of events in the GI Movement shot by GIs and civilian activists.

Exclusive footage from documentary coverage of the movement includes highlights from the FTA Show, Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland's antiwar stage revue that traveled to military bases around the world, F.T.A.

[6] 1965-1967: "A Few Malcontents" As the Johnson administration turns what was initially a small "police action" into an all-out war [7] and the peace movement begins, isolated individuals and small groups in the military refuse to participate and are severely punished: Lt. Henry Howe is sentenced to two years hard labor for attending an antiwar demonstration;[8] the Fort Hood Three are sentenced to three years hard labor for refusing duty in Vietnam;[9] Dr. Howard Levy, a military doctor, refuses to train Special Forces troops and is court-martialed [9] as Donald W. Duncan, a celebrated member of the Green Berets, resigns after a year in Vietnam; and Corporal William Harvey and Private George Daniels are sentenced to up to 10 years in 1967 for meeting with other marines on Camp Pendleton to discuss whether Blacks should fight in Vietnam.

[5] In Vietnam, small combat - refusals occur and are quickly suppressed, but on Christmas Eve, 1969, 50 GIs participate in an illegal antiwar demonstration in Saigon.

Opposition to the war turns militant and the counter-culture rises to its peak:[15] 92,000 soldiers were declared deserters, with tens of thousand fleeing to Canada, France and Sweden;[16] thousands of soldiers organize and participate in Armed Forces Day demonstrations at 19 military bases on May 15, 1971;[17] drug use is rampant and underground radio networks flourish in Vietnam [18] as Black and white soldiers increasingly identify with the antiwar and Black liberation movements;[19] combat refusals and fragging of officers in Vietnam are epidemic.

As the U.S. military and its allies flee Vietnam in disarray in the spring of 1975, the government, the media, and Hollywood begin a 20-year process of erasing the GI Movement from the collective memory of the nation and the world.

The myth that antiwar activists routinely spat on returning soldiers[27] is spread as part of the buildup to the 1990 Gulf War.

"[33] Jonathan Rosenbaum of the Chicago Reader wrote: "I expected to emerge depressed by how long these stories have gone untold, but the speakers' courage and humanity are a shot in the arm.
