....Remembering all prisoners of war and our missing in action
servicemen and women.
The black pentagon obelisk represents the captivity suffered by
the soldiers, Marines, airmen, and women.
The black represents the mourning for those who died in
captivity or are`still missing in action.
The face is looking up and out of the darkness of captivity to
freedom's light and hope.
The band of barbed wire symbolizes imprisonment suffered by all
branches of service for our freedom.

Visiting this place, reminded me that I am forever indebted to
those men & women who have served and I just wanted to share
this special place with you.

I had to move the geocache a few feet because it was muggled
before an FTF could be logged. I also had to use a much smaller
container. (If you have troubles, see the hint)
!!!!!!!Congratulations to Team Puffin for the FTF on
6.14.09!!!!!!!!!!!
Replaced container with the same type because the last one would
not open any more. 10-21-09
I checked on the container today and everything is well. But, I
did replace the log. 3.22.11
I changed the container today and it is a little stealthier than
before, I guess I made it a little more evil. 12/8/11
