A MATTER OF PATRIOTISM
WITH TALL, WHITE WALLS and arches at the entryway, La Tuna Federal Correctional Institution looked like an old Spanish mission. It sat on the desert of west Texas, barren mountains rising behind.
Behind the imposing facade, the building looked like what it was—a prison. In a concrete courtyard patrolled by armed guards, Daniel Ellsberg sat talking with Randy Kehler, the anti-war activist whose words had so inspired him. Kehler was now serving two years at La Tuna for resisting the draft.
After exchanging personal news and talking about the war, Ellsberg asked about prison life. How was the food? Do they let you exercise? Is there anything decent to read? Kehler knew nothing of the unfolding Pentagon Papers drama, but got the sense there was something more than concern for a friend behind the questions. He wondered if Ellsberg might be expecting to spend some time in jail.
