Geocache Description:

An easy find on a gun at the Port Noarlunga-Christies Beach RSL.

I understand this gun has been moved from it's original placement in front of the RSL building. That shouldn't make the cache too hard to find, as the gun is quite large.

Could the next finder please take a waypoint at the position of the cache and include it in their log please. Then I can make the coords correct. A photo showing the gun and it's relationship to the RSL building would also be appreciated, so that I can include that photo in place of mine (with appropriate acknowledgement). Thanks in advance.

WanderingAus wandered by on day 100 of a "climatic refugee" trip, and found this Quick Firing 25 Pounder Field Gun in front of the Port Noarlunga-Christies Beach RSL.

I immediately thought of claiming GA1381 RSL War Artefacts/Memorabilia by MADSTARS.

MADSTARS offers extra points for his cache if the finder also places a cache on the War Artefact. After a quick saturation check (nothing within 1.31 kilometres by my calculation) I determined that I could place a cache on the gun, and I had come equipped for just such an eventuality. I hid a magnetic keycase containing a logbook somewhere on the gun. You will need to bring your own writing implement.

Please treat this area with respect and take a moment or two to reflect on the service of those this area commemorates, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
