    Thumbs up 'Mysterious" Viet Nam Memorial near Gunnison

    Tried searching but didn't see anything so apologies if this is a repost:

    http://www.military.com/video/operat...2805626482001/

    This video was taken by some dirt bike riders along the continental divide, who stumble upon a Vietnam memorial in the woods.

    As usual the government is non committal ....evidently hunters and possibly some vets must be aware of it as there are numerous 7.62x51 and 30.06 rounds and coins on the ledges between the stones. Park rangers apparently work to keep it off maps.

    If you had anything to do with this,

    Thank you for the post. Should never be posted on a map and should be left as a "word of mouth" memorial with the humble solitude presumably intended.

    I just bought a Jeep Wrangler. If you want some company on the trip let me know. Maybe we can make it a COAR-15 expedition.
