Casualties of War Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

rjbloom & co: I've decided to archive this puzzle of mine. I picked up the ammo box today, and altho it was in good shape, the tents and trash of the homeless were very evident. For that and various other reasons, I've decided this one is done.

Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the listed coordinates!

This is an easy puzzle that I made to highlight some statistics that may surprise you about how Americans have suffered relative to other countries in World War I and II.

Assume 32 and 117. You’ll have to do a little rounding to the nearest million. All stats are from WWII except the ones in blue which are from WWI. I used Wikipedia as my source. These statistics could potentially change due to new research so please use the coordinate checker and contact me with any problems.

Millions of Military Deaths
WW2 China
WW2 German + WW2 Yugoslavia
WW2 China + WW2 Japan
WW2 Japan
WW1 US + WW1 UK + 6
WW2 France
WW2 Hungary + WW2 Italy + WW2 Romania + 5
WW2 US + WW2 UK
WW1 Germany + WW1 Austria-Hungary
WW2 Soviet Union - 3
