Did you help bury the horse? The cannons on the hill are a fun trek.

I haven’t hiked up to those long guns on that hill overlooking Marshall Field since I was a kid.

The Custer Hill area is the large curving bluff where all the Unaccompanied Enlisted Personell Barracks are as well as much of the large vehicle maintenance facilities and the start of the Tank Trail. Its uphill from all the old facilities that date back to the calvary era. If you drove on a long one way, two lane curving road (Appinines) you were on Custer Hill.

While I didn’t bury a horse there, I did go through two tornadoes, one in ‘73 on the bluff above Funston in a tents and one in ‘05 about a mile from my jobsite — I hope they count.
