This video leaped out from DailyKos today among tributes to David Cline, the second prominent veteran peace activist to die recently. Those of us at the impeachment rally on Saturday heard Sam Feldman announce Cline's passing. He was a leader of Vietnam Veterans against the War, like Bill Davis, who also died recently. Someone had the brilliant idea of posting a link to Cat Stevens' live performance of "Peace Train." Here it is. Enjoy.

Wikipedia reveals that "Peace Train" was released in "Teaser and the Firecat," 1971.

Dave Cline was a giant of a peace warrior and he will be missed tremendously by the Iraq Veterans Against the War and Veterans For Peace. In his last speech on August 17, 2007, at the Veterans For Peace national conference in St. Louis, Dave was still fighting for victims of Agent Orange.
Dave left us a legacy that the peace community can be very proud of and it's going to be a big loss.
Rest in peace, my friend.
