Geocache Description:

A little walking required, all paved except last 15 feet or so.

**THE CACHE IS NOT AT POSTED COORDS** My youngest daughter and I initially placed this cache in 2005 to honor everyone in our family who has served in the military. At least one family member in every generation since the early 1800's has served in one branch of the Armed Forces, including my Dad (Korea), my father-in-law (1st Marine Div. Chosin Reservoir survivor), myself (Vietnam era), my middle daughter and her husband; my son-in-law is currently serving in the US Army. Sadly, I must now include a neighbor's son who was KIA in Afghanistan in August. Please take the time to explore the park, pay your respects to those who have gone before and those who are still serving to protect your freedom.

This is the third edition of this cache; the first was muggled, the second had its hiding place cut out from under it - please take the time to re-conceal it well.

Final cache coords:
N 38. AD.0EB
W 94. CE.0DA
