It would seem a better name for the group would have been the Four Stooges. Although they did a lot
of damage it seemed they never got their intended target:
- January 1, 1970 Attempted Bombing Badger Ordnance Works – Didn’t explode on impact, in fact they had to call the media several times before anyone believed it had even happened and a search took place.
- January 3, 1970 The ROTC classroom Firebomb at the Red Gym – Hit the wrong section of the building and didn’t affect the ROTC.
- January 4, 1970 Primate Lab Firebomb – Wrong building completely, intended target was Selective Service Headquarters nearby.
- August 24, 1970 Sterling Hall Bombing – The AMRC was located on the fourth floor and sustained only minor damage. The real damage was done to the Physicists on the lower floors including the death of Robert Fassnacht.
