Geocache Description:

Easy, however there is a small drop to get down to the cache site which might make it hard for wheelchairs and strollers.

THIS CACHE IS DEDICATED TO MY FIVE NEPHEWS WHO ARE SERVING THEIR COUNTRY PROUDLY !

The War of 1812 is known as the Forgotten War, thus the name of the cache and the stones in this cemetery. I do not want this War to be forgotten, Nor do I want my nephew's war to be !!!

They are as follows:

NICHOLAS: Re-enlisted after serving his first four years as a Top Marine assigned to personally protected President George Bush while in Helicopter transports. In 2002, he was Awarded Marine of the Year. He is now studying to be a JAG Lawyer and is preparing to be deployed to Iraq
... Up date 8, 2008... Nicholas has finished his school and is now working in Cincinnati, Ohio with his new wife. He was not sent to Iraq as expected. We are happy.
... UP DATE:-October 12, 2009 Nicholas is still living in Cincinnati, Ohio with his wife and is working in Law Enforcement.

MATTHEW: National Guard, served time in Iraq on two separate times: One year his first deployment, Nine months his second deployment. He still serves with the National Guard.

... Up Date... Shawn Just found out he is going to be a Dad!
... Up Date 8, 2008... Shawn was spared from Iraq last fall, and he is father to two boys!!!, However, he has just been given orders to be shipped out to Afghanistan in September 2008. This could change, we can only pray. [:{]
... UP DATE: October 12, 2009 - Shawn has returned home from Iraq after his year stay. He arrived home on September 15, 2009. It was a tough time on him while away, as it was his Aunt that was paralyzed in the ATV accident, his grandfather who died after several strokes, and his cousin who died in the automobile accident. He was not permitted to come home for any of these incidents. We are glad to have him home, and he is glad to back with his boys.

TIMMY: Army, Just Graduated Boot Camp and is preparing to be deployed to Iraq.
...Up Date.... Timmy's deployment has been given and he will be leaving for Iraq in October 2007.
...Up date 8, 2008... Timmy came home for two weeks in July 2008. It was great to see him, and is now back over there. Its hard with Timmy as we have no way to contact him and long periods of time go by in hearing from him. We pray hard for him. ...UP DATE: Timmy has had a tough go of it in the army. It was his mother who was paralyzed in the ATV accident, his Grandfather who died after several strokes, and his sister Kaylee who died in the automobile accident. He was only permitted to be home for each incident three days then deployed again. They have prepared him to return to Afghanistan as an interpreter. We do not look forward to his leaving again, but we are proud of him.
