The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.7061, Longitude: -105.5786       In this case, the coordinates for the Veterans Cemetery have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
<2>The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required.
