The Distinguished Flying Cross Monument is a recent addition to
sites honoring famous aviators. Waypoint above will take you to
this monument. See code below for finding cache location within a
short walk away from the monument.
The DFC medal is awarded for acts of heroism accomplished in
aerial flight. This monument was donated by the
Distinguished
Flying Cross Society of Capistrano Beach, CA (Now in San
Diego).
This is a wonderful, scenic park, but a busy place, especially
at sunset. In fact, you may meet some of the people responsible for
the DFC memorial, and they will likely be walking their dogs.
Look carefully, and replace with care and discretion…muggles may
be lurking about. In fact, the original Flyin’ High was muggled
more than twice. If you want to trade, bring something tiny.
A Sunset to Behold! Bring your camera.
