Freedom Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

jGood2: Originally the container had a great hiding spot - but it's been lost over the years. I can't seem to keep one at the current location very long. I suspect mowing operations get it. I'm archiving this one today, freeing up space for another one.

Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but is a good place to start.

The cords will take you to a final resting place of fallen comrade of mine that paid the supreme price for his country. Lance Cpl. Alec E Catherwood was killed with another Marine in Helmand province Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom on October 14 2010

I never met Alex but we had a common bond that we both shared with the uniform we wore and the oath we took when we volunteered to joined the United States Marine Corps.

Freedom Is Not Free

Look at the 15 word inscription on the base of the marker to finish these coordinates:

A= the # of letters in the 2nd word + the # of letters in the 3rd word
B= the # of letters in the 3rd word + the # of letters in the 7th word
C= the # of letters in the 2nd word + the # of letters in the 10th word
D=the # of letters in the 7th word
E= the # of letters in the 3rd word + the # of letters in the 7th word
F= the # of letters in the 3rd word + the # of letters in the 7th word
G= the #of letters in the 8th word

The container is not in the cemetery but on the out side perimeter.

**11/13/13 update - Significant pruning happened at GZ. Relocated GZ 21 feet to the left. When you get there - it will make sense to you. **
