Biography
Russel Milton Wills was a University of Washington philosophy graduate student who destroyed his draft card in protest against the Vietnam War and refused induction on February 24, 1966. A federal court convicted and sentenced him to five years on September 23, 1966. The sentence was later reduced to two years. A late-1969 peace-prisoner roster places him at McNeil Island, confirming that he served prison time, but his exact admission and release dates remain unresolved.
