I would offer some information too. Tell him about PNAC and the real reason he is going to war. Give him info on some support organizations available to him (and his buddies in the Guard) like:
Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors

http://www.objector.org/index.htmlCCCO has a section called "Getting out of the Delayed Entry Program". Here is some of what they say:
What is the Delayed Entry Program?
Most people who enlist are signed up into the Delayed Entry Program (DEP), which is also called the Delayed Enlistment Program, for up to a year before they report for active duty training. Sign now, pay later. It's a popular way to sell cars, stereos and military enlistment. The Delayed Entry Program is particularly attractive to high school seniors who are unsure about what to do after graduation. A lot can happen in a year (especially for teenagers!), and many young people change their minds about what they want to do with their lives.
How does someone get out of the Delayed Enlistment Program?
While Delayed Enlistment Program recruits have incurred a legal obligation to the military, getting out of the Delayed Entry Program is simple: write a letter requesting separation that fully explains why the recruit is unable or unwilling to serve. If there is more than one reason, explain them all.
What kinds of reasons are acceptable?
While the military defines specific separation categories, as long as the recruit states clearly that he or she is no longer interested in serving in the military almost any reason is acceptable. Despite occasional threats of involuntary activation from recruiters, the military currently releases all Delayed Entry Program recruits who request a separation.

You might also want to tell him about Military Families Speak Out so he knows that not everyone in the military supports this war.

I don't mean to push this on him, but I would offer it. Maybe print this out and give it to him to have and think about in private.
