Dear Colonel Smith,

I am not able to continue my participation with the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps as a result of an objection of conscience. My faith, based upon the teachings of Christ documented in the scriptures, has brought me to understand that my enemies, like all others, should receive from me only love. My actions should never contradict that love, and by justifying the taking of my enemy's life I act in a contrary manner.

In response to this religious conviction, I request that I be classified as a conscientious objector 1-0. Please notify me if there is any need of clarification or further information, and forward the necessary paperwork to the address printed above. I am also happy to answer any questions that you may have. Thank you.

In Respect and Gratitude,

John Doe
