Ok well...I don't know where to begin.
1) Busch wildlife was part of the WSOW or Weldon Spring Ordinance Works. It
was used during WWII. The site changed hands multiple times over the years.
First it was the army's, then the D.O.E.'s, then the Army's again, then the
governments, now it's the D.O.E.'s again.
2) You all know about the giant mound at Weldon Spring and the quarry, well
our favorite backyard fishing spot was a GIANT ordinance transport center.
There was a train track, a depot, and a bunch of well known bunkers. (some
part of Corporal Snuffy's Box)
3) I believe it is a marker once used as part of a government grid system of
the site.
That's all I can think of.
