GC7VTYR August 1968 (Unknown Cache) in Bratislavský kraj, Slovakia created by Rikitan

This cache has been archived.

Rikitan: Počet logov ubúda, keška za necelé 4 roky už takmer vyčerpala svoj potenciál. Prevedenie nie je nič extra a aj preto nie je potrebné jej životnosť udržiavať príliš dlho. Som rád, ak niekomu ukázala niečo (staro)nové a obohatila váš deň. Dejinné udalosti odpočívajú v archívoch, ale nemôžeme dopustiť ich vymazanie z pamäti.

Kešku stiahnem z terénu pri najbližšej ceste okolo.

August 1968
50 rokov od invázie vojsk Varšavskej zmluvy do Československa."Mala som 14 a strašne som sa bála, že bude vojna. Ľudia vtedy vykúpili z obchodov všetky potraviny."
"Jeden maďarský okupant mal pod uniformou montérky a pri sebe výplatu. Plakal, že ich brali rovno z fabriky a jeho žena ani nevie, kde je a potrebuje peniaze."
Na úvodných súradniciach je len busta Jána Langoša, zakladateľa Ústavu pamäti národa. Keška sa sem nezmestila, preto je inde. Nájdite najskôr toto okienko z dobovej fotografie. Dodnes nad ním vidno stopy po streľbe. Visí tam aj tabuľka, pripomínajúca obete. Ak neviete, kde to je, pozrite si EN listing.
Tá tabuľka vám prezradí chýbajúce cifry do súradníc kešky.

Nezabudneme. мы не забудем.

August 1968
50 years since Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia."I was 14 and very afraid of war coming. People bought all the food from the shops back then."
"One hungarian occupant wore overall under his uniform, paycheck in the pocket. He was weeping that they took them straight from the factory, even his wife did not know where he was."
At posted coordinates is just memorial of Ján Langoš, who established the Nation's Memory Institute. Cache is elsewhere. If you'd like to find it, focus on famous photograph, taken by Ladislav Bielik in streets of Bratislava.
On the wall, where red arrow is pointing, you can still find holes after fatal shooting in August 1968. There's a black plaque with names of 3 victims too. It will tell you 6 missing ciphers to final coordinates.
