Geocache Description:

This a Silent Quest multi-cache. Please be respectful of your surroundings and return the cache to its original hiding spot.

This a silent quest multi-cache. It is in the Ridge Cemetery in Fremont (see also SQ -In Between the Tears). The cache is NOT at the coordinates given. The coordinates will take you to a location to get the information needed to find the actual cache.

The location you will visit with the coordinates listed is the final resting place of a former World War II soldier. His daughter just happened to be there when I was looking for a good hiding spot for the cache. When I asked about him, she said he fought in Germany during the war. She told me he had all kinds of stories from that time. One of her (and his) favorite stories was how the troops were told not to give anything to the German kids if they came around. He told her about how he would break the rules by sneaking cookies and candy to the children. I guess there CAN be love during war. The name of this cache MAY help you find the right information.

To find the cache:
Take the year he was born and add it to the NORTH coordinates listed below.
Take the year he died and add it to the WEST coordinates listed below.
N41 24.510
W96 29.300

You are looking for a micro. BYOP and maybe tweezers.
