This is the first of a handful of TV series trivia caches we are
placing in and around Kingston.
Do not go looking for this cache without doing your homework, as
the answers to the puzzle cannot be found in the park.
This cache is named after an episode of my all time favorite T.V.
Series "M*A*S*H", and is located in Kingston's Block Park. The
difficulty of the cache can go up or down depending on your
knowledge of the series: for some the answers to the puzzle may be
easy, for those who aren't familiar it may be more challenging
(google and IMDB are your friends). If for any reason you have a
difficulty solving for the coordinates feel free to send me a note
and I'll give you a hand.
Now onto the puzzle, you want to solve the following for the final
coordinates:
N 41 5A.BCD
W 73 5E.FGH
Clues:
To solve for A:
The amount of times the letter 'a' occurs in the actors name who
portrayed "Hawkeye"
To solve for B and D:
This episode is from Season D, Episode B
To solve for C:
At any given time, how many "Majors" were on the regular staff at
the 4077th?
To solve for E:
The chances of survival of a wounded soldier has if they make it to
the 4077th alive: E7%. (The second digit varies by source,
but the first number remains the same).
To solve for F and G:
Year this episode originally aired: 19GF
To solve for H:
The series lasted ?? seasons, add these digits
together to get H
You can check your answers here if you need a pat on the back
Good luck and happy caching, I'll leave you with one of my favorite
quotes from this show to ponder:
"Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and
slide on the ice"
