Somewhat related to preservation question:

How do I determine, in advance, at what point on the compass the sun is
going to rise if I will be standing at a specific lat/long point in North
America?

I have designed a monument for the Vietnam War dead of my small hometown. I
want it oriented so that one of the edges of the sculpture points directly
to the compass point of sunrise on the day when first guy was KIA, March
4. I can't figure out how to do it without going down there and standing at
the spot where the monument will be. Come on pinheads, help a guy out.

Can I make this any more confusing, other than to say I've designed it of
Jerusalem stone?
