Soldierstone
Description:
The Soldierstone memorial is a 10-foot granite memorial that sits atop a mountain range in Saguache, Colorado. It was planned and created by a Vietnam war veteran, Stuart Allen Beckley. The memorial was made to honor the civilians and soldiers of those from nations who secretly aided the United States during the Vietnam war -- including Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and France. Beckley's wish was to keep this memorial in a peaceful, remote area, where the memorial would have a quiet existence and travelers would just happen to stumble upon it.
