This cache offers a birds eye view of the nearby Veteran’s cemetery, and the surrounding area. We’re naming this one “Some Gave All” taken from the title of a Billy Ray Cyrus song. Billy Ray grew up in nearby Flatwoods, KY. You could call this cache a brother to the “ All Gave Some” cache, which we placed not too far away.
Kentucky’s fourth veteran’s cemetery was dedicated on Sept. 10, 2010 eight days short from one year after groundbreaking ceremonies on Friday, Sept. 18, 2009. Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Northeast is prestigiously located on 78 acres softly nestled in the Appalachian hills less than one mile from Interstate 64 on Highway 67 that connects Interstate 64 to US 23 at the border of Boyd, Carter and Greenup counties. The 78-acre Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Northeast was built with $6.1 million from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Cemetery Grant Program. The cemetery will eventually have a combined total of 25,000 graves including columbarium for niches. Kentucky is home to 339,000 veterans. The cemetery serves veterans and their families from northeastern Kentucky, as well as those from southeastern Ohio and western West Virginia, supporting the federal goal of ensuring that a national or state veteran’s cemetery is no further than 75 mile radius from veteran’s families.
The cache is a camoed peanut butter jar containing a log sheet, a keychain, and an army man. The cache was made while out placing a cache nearby. Our little guy wanted “my own cache”, so, we made an impromptu container, and found a dandy spot to hide it. He’s so proud of “his” cache. If you’d like, take a pic of yourself at the cache site, and post it. He’d love it!
Congrats to the Ratliff Family for the FTF.
