To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Utah built the Minute Men basesunderground rocket intercontinental ballistic missile rockets in South Dakota. Swent: That s the silos not the rockets, but the silos. Wilson: The silos, yes. So when the Vietnam War came along, Utah was asked to participate. It didn t really want to, but, as I understand it, the government made it clear that if we didn t participate, we would no longer participate in other military contracts. So it finally turned out that we joint-ventured with Brown & Root, and ...built three or four air force bases in Thailand. Morrison Knudsen and Guy F. Atkinson, I think it was, took the contracts for the air force bases in Vietnam. Swent: Brown & Root is a Texas firm, isn t it? Wilson: Yes. Swent: Under LBJ s [President Lyndon B. Johnson] sponsorship, right? Wilson: Yes. That s right. So, it was for that reason--! think we have said earlier in this, that the Venceremos had me on a hit list. It was because of my involvement with a company that was doing business in support of the Vietnam War.
