Ok, I know everyone isn't going to jump right up and try to find this one,
but how often does one get the opportunity to plant a box on Cuba?
Enduring Freedom Box
Windward side, Guantanamo Bay US Naval Station, Cuba
Planted Nov. 8, 2002
by A and M
Take Kittery Beach Road (off of Sherman, of course) to the plant nursery.
You can park your Humvee, golf cart, or other tactical vehicle in the
nursery parking lot. Walk up the road past the nursery, and take Hutia
Highway to the right. Keep following the path straight until you can only
go right or left. Make the right turn. At the red/bicycle marker, walk 13
paces along the path. Turn 11 degrees and walk to the concrete wall. Free
the letterbox hidden underneath the pile of rocks.

Unfortunately, I can't go looking for this one but I very highly applaud your sizeable contribution to broadening our horizons and spreading the wonder of letterboxing to new and more interesting venues. Anybody able to plant one on Diego Garcia?

---How HOT! I guess that means I have to leave my Dress Whites at
home. (According to Jack Nicholson, from "A Few Good Men").
I'd love to take a Humvee for a spin. Wonder if it could make it
to the Florida Keys. Just Dreaming!!!
Did you get permission from the Head Cheese? Or will they shot
first and ask questions later? :-)

Drat! I do get there occasionally, but not on that side, always on
the Airport Tarmac.... Oh well. I'll wave as I fly by.
