..in SH3:

Sooo...fast forward, I'm at Ft. Meade about 11 am. I'm taking a walk around the southern edge of the base (a mix of brand new and run-down construction) and I find the "Post Cemetery." I walk around, and I see this:

Tilt your head...I HAD made it upright, but when I uploaded it for some bizarre reason it was on its side.

Wow, that is a real find.

Whereabouts is this Ft. Meade and is it open to the public? What other graves are there?

There's a book about him that's supposed to be pretty good. On my Wish List like so many others but IIRC it's kinda pricey.

Well, it's along a "Rock Ave" (

) which runs parallel to Rt 32 before Rock Ave turns and crosses 32. It's next to another cemetery called Bethel Cemetery.

Here's the cemetery's entry on findagrave:

It seems there are a lot of infants.

Ft. Meade is accessible if you have a military I.D. (or know someone who will take you in w/his/her I.D...expect your car to be searched if you don't have a DOD parking sticker), and I think the cemetery gate is open like 8-4 or something like that.

WTF has the No Such Agency been doing?
