On Vaisakhi day 2009, 2 young Sikhs decided to take on the U.S. Army.

And this is what they're hearing:

"What a load of crap! This is our Military and our rules and regulations. If you want to play in it, abide by our rules or [get out]. There are always other countries that need people to serve." - posted on Military.com

"shave the beard, take the turban off. itll grow back later and you can put the d*mn thing back on when youre done." - posted on Military.com

Let's be honest.  Taking on one of world's most powerful institutions is not easy.

But we also know the truth: Sikhs serve and are able to perform their military duties in armies all over the world.  When the truth comes out, we will be victorious. The facts are on our side.

If you want to help us get these facts out to society, we ask that you financially support our work now:
