American Veterans for Peace.
American Veterans for Peace, officially founded in June 1951, was the result of a Communist Party-oriented initiative in the months following the outbreak of the Korean War that saw the founding of several local Veterans for Peace organizations. The AVP published a monthly newsletter, Progressive Veteran, 1949-1955 (title changed to Vet's Voice in 1950). While its main purpose was to oppose American participation in the Korean War, the AVP also opposed militarism, supported improved relations with the Soviet Union and a progressive social agenda.
