Geocache Description:



The 4th cache in the M*A*S*H series hidden in Jikdong Park in Uijeongbu-Si Korea. Cache is a Skipper Peanut butter container, it is is big enough to hold travel bugs and trade items.

Cache is a public park just off a nature trail to the north. Please make sure cache is hidden well when you put it back. If you don't then it will not last long.
Jikdong Park is behind both Uijeongbu Arts Center and Youth Center, take bus 133 to the area. The Fire Station is also in the general area.

M*A*S*H was an American medical drama/black comedy TV series. It follows a team of doctors and support staff stationed at the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital in Uijeongbu, South Korea, during the Korean War. The series premiered on September 17, 1972, and ended February 28, 1983, with the finale becoming the most-watched television episode in U.S. television history with 105.97 million viewers; this record stood until 2010 when Super Bowl XLIV surpassed the record with 106.5 million viewers.

This cache is named after one of the characters in M.A.S.H. If you have seen the show you remember him as the guy who seemed to have extra-sensory perception, appearing at his commander's side before being called and finishing his sentences. He also had exceptionally good hearing, able to hear incoming helicopters before anyone else. It was these abilities that earned him the nickname "Radar." You can read about him at wikipedia.

When I got to Uijeongbu to teach at a local public school, I was surprised at the lack of caches in the area. I hope my M*A*S*H series of caches will remedy that. If you can, spread the love and place some for me to find.
