Dear Editor,
November 6, 1995
What's wrong with this picture?
It's a Sunday. Five or so military personnel, apparently as part of a
contracted construction crew, are running heavy military equipment on the grounds of a
nearly-completed Elementary school which has hardly anywindows except small ones in the
doors.
This is not something out of old Soviet Russia. This was yesterday in
Fountain Green, Utah.
I'm sure there is reasonable justification behind each element of this
scene. Yet somehow, it seemed a little eerie. Perhaps it was that the school has no
windows. Perhaps it was the military presence at a school. Perhaps it was construction of
a public school on the Sabbath. Maybe it was all these factors combined.
Sincerely,
