MILITARY SERIES – After spending 20 years in the military and retiring in 2000 as a First Sergeant from the Wisconsin Army Reserve National Guard, I decided to create this series and dedicate it to all of the men and women that served before me, with me, after me, serve today and those who will serve in future generations.
Each of the caches in this series is named after a unit, position, rank or other significant event during my military career.
You are searching for a camo (what else – it is a military series) pill bottle. While some of these may be an easy find, others may require some creative and critical thinking. Look at the rating for each cache as they will vary within the series.
I am starting this series where everyone starts their military career. The ASVAB is a multiple-aptitude battery that measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success in the military. It is administered annually to more than one million military applicants, high school, and post-secondary students. The ASVAB was introduced in 1968 and over 40 million examinees have taken the ASVAB since then. While not everyone who takes the ASVAB enters the military for one reason or another, everyone who enters the military has taken the ASVAB.
When I was a junior in high school, I did not have any intentions of going into the military and I had no idea what the ASVAB was. When I heard over the morning announcements that taking the ASVAB would get you out of 2-3 hours of classes, I was quick to take it. The rest is history which you will learn through this series.
Permission to place this cache was given by Mike Kactro of the Washington County Parks/Planning Department. As this section of the Eisenbahn Trail is maintained by the Washington County Parks/Planning Dept., the "DNR Placement Notification Form" has been submitted to the Washington County Parks/Planning Dept. at the request of the DNR.
