That's exactly what geocaching should be about.  What an excellent
cache.  Thank you for bringing it to our attention.  It's too bad we
don't hear more about real heroes like those soldiers.

With the recent talk about Locationless caches, I admit that I did a few
of them early on when I started caching, and even own one...kind of
They never put it in the locationless caches, but put it into Montana,
which is just fine with me as this is one that I did to honor my parents
(GC58C4). Again I really did it for myself, just to honor my parent's
motel...not to have a locationless.=20
=20
I haven't done a Locationless cache in almost 2 years, but if the spirit
so moved me, I would probably do others.  Really, I'm just to busy to
look for a lot of the stuff, and would much rather get out with my boys
and do other caches. =20
=20
However, there is one that I will do, if I ever find one and/or take the
time to look.  But I do watch this locationless, and do so PROUDLY.
That one is...(GC9544).  It is especially gratifying to do so when a
story like the following is logged....

Although some may say that this locationless isn't really geocaching, I
would say that this is exactly what geocaching is for:  A chance to
discover a location, experience an event (in this case a horrific one),
wonder what possessed a human spirit to perform such a selfless and
desperate act, and choke in awe and pride from the fact that he DID.
=20
It's possible that those of you who have not served in uniform may not
understand the feelings that I experience reading the logs from this
Locationless Cache, and that is perfectly acceptable.  However, in my
opinion, and it IS just my opinion, this is one of the most remarkable
caches on the web site, even though it is a trite Locationless.

For those geocachers who get stymied by locationless caches because the
site they propose to claim for the cache has already been logged by
someone else, here is an opportunity to claim a log finding for a
locationless cache site that didn't exist when the locationless cache
was made.  Find the large object at N 33=B0 31.966 W 112=B0 15.675 and
upload a photograph of it to your log entry for this
<http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=3D3dfd1906-ba0d-4=

18-8527-e96751e49dc1> cache (GC4E84).  You can see my "Note" entry for
this cache here
