Visit the Town of Dinosaur, Colorado "In the farthest Northwest corner of Colorado, sitting quietly beneath the looming Blue Mountain Range, amid golden fields, cattle ranches and sweeping vistas, you will find tiny Dinosaur, Colorado, home to only 339 residents. Here, one can close their eyes and easily imagine the prehistoric titans of long ago roaming the largely unchanged landscape, beneath a uniquely western sky. The peacefulness of our historic, old west town will fill your soul with longing for the past, respect for the present and an appetite for adventure! " "Originally established Dec 9th, 1947, as the Town of Artesia, Dinosaur, changed its name in 1966 to capitalize on the ever-increasing popularity of the Dinosaur National Monument, conveniently located just two miles east of the Town of Dinosaur. It’s true, dinosaurs once roamed here, but make no bones about it…. there are NO Dinosaur bones located on the Colorado side of the Monument." CONTINUE READING
The Germans were always one step ahead in new ideas for their military. They had ID Tags long before the US started issuing them. I read where our stamping technology was not good enough to mass produce tags and then afterwards do the engraving at the final issuing point. They still find German ID tags of their WWII dead when exhuming and moving their bodies to the homeland to be buried in military cemeteries. Most of these grave sites are of unknown missing in action near the close of WWII. I still have my P-38 and never had to replace it even after 3 years use in RVN. Today they use those LERPS dehydrated foods that have the water catalyst for heating. Pretty tasty even 56 years ago. We were still unsophisticated and just spooned the soot off the top of the can after heating.
