Geocache Description:

This cache is placed in a small park which thousands of people drive by everyday. Ironically, I suspect many of those drivers do not even know that park is there. Parking is right on Morrissey Blvd., just don’t park under the handicap sign.

When you get to the park you will see the main memorial about 100 feet from the street. Placed close to the main memorial are four stone benches which have I Corps, II Corps, III Corps and IV Corps carved into them along with names of places in Vietnam where significant battles took place.

Farther along the path, as it goes to the right, you will see a flag pole and five stone markers for the five arm services. Continuing on to the end of the path you will come up to a group of stone benches.

Please take a minute to reflect on the names on the memorial and the purpose of this park.

The Cache:
To find the cache you will have to find the answers to six questions: ABCDEF.
Once you have those answers place them in the following coordinates:
N 42 18.ABC W 071 02.DEF

A. On the main monument find Peter W. G________. Count the number of letters in his last name. A= ____

F. Continue along the pathway to the top of the hill where you will find a group of stone benches with nothing inscribed on them. Count the number of benches. F= ____

Warning:
The final is well concealed form the muggle eye and well protected by nature. Accessing the final will require some bush whacking and stone turning.

Good luck and good caching,
Loch Cache
