Most, if not all of the roadside rest areas in the Mojave Desert along Interstates 15, 10 and 40 have a monument/plaque erected by the Billy Holcomb Chapter of E Clampus Vitus, most often commemorating General George S. Patton's Desert Training Center for his tank corps. There's plaques sprinkled throughout the desert commemorating things of historical interest.
One such plaque is at the Wiley Well Rest Area outside of Blythe, California. Yesterday, I stopped for a coffee break there and went out to photograph the monument.
