Project: A.C.O.R.N.S. Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

GeoMeeples: I no longer have the time or money to keep up my caches when there is someone obviously attacking my caches. I hope the people who got to experience my series enjoyed themselves. Almost 5000 hits in 5 months and people traveling from out of the area/state to visit my caches was sweet.

Death of my caches:

Stage 1: I have removed all caches that could hold TBs/GCs,swag, or that I invested money in filling or creating.

Stage 2: I left all other caches but will no longer replace them when they get taken. Feel free to go after the remaining caches just make sure you stay up to date with which ones are missing.

Geocache Description:

***The coordinates are not the actual cache location but you can use them for parking***

One day while surfing the Internet, I came across information about something named "Project: A.C.O.R.N.S.".

Would you believe that there is a government organization dedicated to the sole purpose of screwing with geocachers? I have no idea what this organization is called, who they report to, or what they are hoping to accomplish. What I do know is that their "Project: A.C.O.R.N.S." is in its prototype stage. I also know that the acronym stands for Annihilate Caches on Random Nature Sectors and the project involves training animals to destory or steal caches.

Although I am not sure what type of animal is the prototype, I do know that it is a sleeper(Stays in a state of hibernation until activated). That means it is safe to capture. After further research on the Internet, all I was able to uncovered was that the prototype's sleeping location is at: ***N39.07.XYZ W076 37.ABC***

There are 12 soldiers stationed around Glen Burnie. Each soldier has a piece of the prototype's location. Thanks to government redundancy, their are two soldiers for each piece of information.

Sgt C.Haze(GC1E9FD) or Sgt Jack Stern(GC1E9GJ) will provide you with the "X".

Private Quiggly(GC1E9GN) or Cyber Cadets(GC1E9GR) will provide you with the "Y".

Sgt K.C.Tyser(GC1E9RR) or Sgt Malik Flea(GC1E9RV) will provide you with the "Z".

Sgt S.Cory(GC1E9H0) or Sgt Cobson(GC1E9RX) will provide you with the "A".

Sgt Lynne Mist(GC1E9T0) or Platoon of Seven(GC1E9H3) will provide you with the "B".

Sgt Tom Less(GC1E9H7) or Radioman Wood(GC1E9T2) will provide you with the "C".

Your job is to interrogate these soldiers for information, then locate and capture the prototype. You may work as a team to locate the animal. To get credit for this cache you do not have to visit all of the soldiers or even six of them. All I care about is the prototype; interrogating the soldiers is just a bonus. You have the permission to park in the Quail Hollows parking lot near the listed coordinates. I suggest that you enter the woods near the wooden fence. FTF gets $5!!!
