Abstract
- Peace Corps Volunteers (PCV) have been spilling back into the U.S. for four years now, but as yet their group forays into politics have been sporadic at best, and more than a little unwelcome to many of the volunteers. Indeed, one of the major concerns of a 1965 conference of returned corpsmen, titled "Citizen in a Time of Change," was a parcel of several proposals for a national association. Vietnam is certainly the catalyst, but it is not Vietnam alone. The mounting racial tensions in southern Africa, the agonizing deterioration of the Alliance for Progress, the growing U.S. military presence in Thailand, these and other occurrences are provoking serious thought among ex-PCVs.
