I derived the following elements using observations by Paul Gabriel and Jim
Nix, from 19 Aug to 06 Sep UTC:

Milstar 3       15.0  4.5  4.5  3.5 v
1 25724U 99023A   00250.11967593  .00000066  00000-0  83536-3 0    04
2 25724  28.2074 185.1841 2130414 118.4010 264.7277  9.37406692    04

Mean residuals are less than 1 arc min.

Paul is much better located to observe this object than most active observers.
His recent intensive observing campaign has made it easy to converge on an
accurate orbit.
