Geocache Description:

The Dirty Dozen

An Army Major who likes to butt heads with his superiors, is being "given" a new assignment, to train 12 men who are either sentenced to death or life imprisonment, to go behind enemy lines raid a chateau that the Germans are using as an R&R center and kill as enemy officers as they can and disrupt the German chain of command. Now he not only has to train them; he has to get them to start acting like a unit.

Joseph Wladislaw (Charles Bronson) – Sentenced to death by hanging for shooting a deserting officer.

This is the third cache in a series. We have decided to make a 13 cache series (the Dirty Dozen plus the Major) - each one (we believe) evilly difficult or fun to find.

Congrats to Olivia Noelle for the first to find and log all 13!!! Congrats to BThomas for the second to find and log. HMB Lipripper is coming up fast for a possible third.
