Located at Airport Tract bicycle trail in Brick.
Update: I replaced container and contents June 2014. The theme is no longer met. I will cap donations to the Freedom Alliance at this time. I wrote checks to them totaling $300.00.
I placed this cache in honor of the men and women of the Armed Forces. Since a small boy I have felt that the soldier has always been the true hero. Some may feel it's the baseball player who can hit a ball 400 feet or the performer who can attract millions to their shows. However, the person willing to give their lives for our freedom, that's the one who has earned our respect and admiration.
In a climate where political correctness seems to rule the day, I feel not a day should go by that we don't thank that person we may see in uniform for their loyal service and dedication to us all.
Original cache is a 200 cartridge 7.62mm ammo box.
