Thanks for the great photos. It's grim topic matter, but it's good and necessary history. There are a few interesting historical sites around Ks. Have you ever been to or near Smoky Hill (AF/AG range), outside of Salina? I trained and trained others right next to it (Army reserve component--out of NBTC). We saw a castle-like structure about thirty miles from there, on another hill. I was told that it was an old Spanish fort. ...true?
I am not certain, but, will gladly look into that for you.
Yes, it is a grim subject matter but I to agree it is history and we should share this with our children.
I hope they learn it in school but if not, then perhaps one can review the thread with children and/or grandchildren and for you, enhancing this subject with your own reflections.
We are currently stationed at Ft Leavenworth, so I am learning as I go.
