Geocache Description:


Minnesota Spirit Quest

The cache is not located near a grave... If you find a fallen US flag, please stick it back in the ground at a veteran’s grave. As always, please be respectful and cache in, trash out. Also, please only search for cache during daylight hours.

At the posted coordinates, you should look for the gravesite of Allen G. Wenz, a Minnesota soldier who served with the 14th Depot Brigade during World War I. As a 22 year old while stationed in Camp Grant, Illinois, he and two other soldiers died of the Spanish Influenza on Oct 7, 1918. In 1918, the Spanish Influenza Pandemic affected over 4,000 men at the camp, taking the lives of over 1,000 between 23 September and 1 October, or just about 1 week.

Allen was born on what year, 18AB?
