Devil's Sentry  

DEVIL'S SENTRY BOX - At the base of a steep cliff today can be seen the oldest surviving element of San Cristobal, a lonely lookout post renown in Puerto Rican legend as the "Garita del Diablo". Sentries manning this post regularly shouted "Alerta" during their watch to communicate with other soldiers and keep themselves awake during the long nights.
