English Falcon Cannon

This English Falcon Cannon sits at the Cheyenne Air Force Base. It was captured at the same time as the Bells of Balangiga, following the Balangiga massacre in 1901. The flag pole sits between the bells and the cannon in what is called Trophy Park. The flag pole is believed to be from the USS Wyoming.

I got a kick out of the "Do Not Cut or Trim sign next to the cannon display. Need to save that Wyoming grass I guess.
