No response from the cache owner.

Geocache Description:

This cache can be found in some nice little parks in my local area without too much walking. The initial co-ordinates will take you to a car-park in which there is a sign that provides the information necessary to discover the final co-ordinates.

This sign always seemed a little bit out of place just here, away from the other memorials and just down the street from an R.S.L. where you might expect such a thing. Anyway, I think it’s important to remember the past and the terrible costs wars have had to our nation, in the hope of preventing them in the future. So, information from the sign will give you the numbers necessary to fill in the unknowns in the co-ordinates below and therefore find the final cache. Don’t try to find the information on the internet, as I’ve checked myself and there is a large variety of figures out there (you’re almost guaranteed to get the wrong ones). When you find the final cache (it’s in the obvious spot when you get the co-ordinates, but not at them (bad GPS reading)), please obey the rather obvious theme (see picture if you need a hint…) and replace as much of the naturally occurring camouflage as you can.

The final co-ordinates are of the form:
ab*cc.ddd
eee*ff.ggg

where:

a= no. of raids on Townsville, Queensland
b= no. of VC’s won in Vietnam
c= no. of medals pictured in the border minus those in the middle
d= no. of casualties at Menin Road (1917) , divided by the no. of deaths at Long Khanh (1971)(to the nearest whole no.)
e= end date of the Battle of Atineham (1918) (DD/M)
f= no. of VC’s won in France (WWI &WWII), minus the no. of VC’s won in Turkey
g= Total fatalities in the South African War (1899-1902), minus the no. of VC’s won in Russia, plus the casualties at Maryang San (1951), minus the losses at John’s Knoll (1943)

Lest We Forget.
