Leslie Bellais talked about some of the artifacts related to the August 24, 1970 bombing at Sterling Hall on the University of Wisconsin - Madison campus. The bombers targeted the building because it housed the Army Mathematics Research Center, which conducted research for the military during the Vietnam War. The blast killed researcher Robert Fassnacht and wounded several others.
