Good article.

I went to a blue collar beer party in Tallmadge, Ohio, 1978-ish. A Ravenna based national guardsman turned local police officer was there and was one of guardsman at Kent State.

I remember he was not proud about what happened. He was not assertive at all about defending their actions but did say it was not pretty (e.g., There were no flowers handed to them).
