Thanks Sandra,
I’ll note this and hopefully a reply from the Denver volunteer group may give more detail.
They have sent me a reply. They may take up to one month to get back to me.
Do you know if this cemetery is reserved for war veterans, they don’t seem to have family detail, ie husband of etc.

Hi
I have looked at these links. I did see “girl guides post”.
I still haven’t worked out why Arthur and Donald are buried in Fort Logan Cemetery.
They didn’t die in service. No family detail on the headstones for either.
Maybe the obituary from the Denver Post will shed some light.

A service member who died while on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty for training, or. The spouse or minor child of a Veteran, even if the Veteran died first......
