13. No - Halliburton Was A Very Small Company Then - It Was PA&E
Back in the Viet Nam days the company to go to for graft was Pacific Architects and Engineers (PA&E). They build dam near everything in Viet Nam that the Military didn't build. Remember, this was back before the military contracted out every fart-smelling.

Halliburton, prior to the late 90's was primarily an oil field service company. Surprisingly enough they were very good to work with. I had a lot of dealings with them back when I was a Contracting Officer with the Department of Energy. They did what they said they would do when they said they would do it and they always ... I repeat, Always ... came in at the target price.
