A US soldier at Fort Hood, Texas is refusing orders to deploy to Afghanistan. Sergeant Travis Bishop is the second servicemember in as many weeks from Fort Hood to face court-martial for resisting the Afghan war. Last week, Specialist Victor Agosto was sentenced to a month in jail for refusing to deploy. Like Agosto, Bishop also served a lengthy tour in Iraq before he was given orders to fight in Afghanistan. Bishop will appear before a military court on Friday.
