The Missile Next Door: The Minuteman in the American Heartland
Gretchen Heefner
In the 1960s the Air Force buried 1,000 ICBMs in pastures across the Great Plains to keep U. S. nuclear strategy out of view. As rural civilians of all political stripes found themselves living in the Soviet crosshairs, a proud Plains individualism gave way to an economic dependence on the military-industrial complex that still persists today.
