Geocache Description:

The above coordinates will take you to a plaque placed in dedication of one of Kiel's heroes who served in Afghanistan. Tragically he was killed in a car accident shortly after returning home from duty. This cache will take you to his grave and finally the hidden cache. BYOP

1/10 Update: Also, in the southeastern corner of this cemetery, is the grave of Sgt. Amy Krueger. Kiel's fallen hero of the Fort Hood shootings. If you have the time, please stop by and pay your respects.

For the second set of coordinates, find the year of his birth and death.
Birth year - 922 = 1abc
2202 - Death year = def

Grave site:
43N 55.abc
88W 00.def

For the final coordinates, find the chapter and verse from the biblical inscription on his headstone.
(Chapter #) - 44 = xx
(Verse #) x 14.5 = yyy

Final cache:
43N 55.0xx
88W 00.yyy

The cache container is not in contact with any gravestones, monuments, or other memorials. Please respect the area. Also, take care to replace the cache so that is it not readily visible to the casual passerby.

The WSQ in the cache title refers to Wisconsin Spirit Quest. This acronym is used by cache owners in the state to identify their cemetery caches.

5/09 - Upped terrain rating to a "2" since the cache is about 5 feet off the ground.
