The Crofton chapter of the American Legion was formed in 1920s.
The Crofton Legion is very active and supports the Legion baseball programs and provides honor guards at funerals of veterans. Starting in the early 1990sthe legion planned and sponsored the Avenue of Flags in this park (South Park) with over 300 flags which continues as a wonderful memorial! The flags are placed on multiple patriotic holidays. The various veteran's memorials seen here are home for 700 names of service personnel, both living and deceased from all over the country - all with Crofton connections.
No need to dig or disturb - the cache is a small duct tape waterproof container stuck to the bottom of a loose brick.
