Geocache Description:

A moderately easy cache. Parking is nearby. Watch the traffic in this area.
The potential for muggles can be high. Part of the difficulty rating for this cache is the muggle factor. Know thy enemy.
If you can see the background image on this page, you're looking at what the original bridge used to look like. The bridge was actually destroyed and little remains of it aside from the towers at the ends.

Nazi Officer: Enemy planes, Major.
Major Paul Kreuger: But who is the enemy?

This is the third in my soon-to-be famous "bridge" series and a nod to the classic 1969 WWII movie about the true story of an assault on one of the last bridgeheads on the Rhine River that leads into the heart of Germany.

The movie stars George Segal, Robert Vaughn, Ben Gazzara and E.G. Marshall. Despite being highly-regarded by critics and movie-goers alike, this movie doesn't share the fame and fortune of "A Bridge Too Far" or "The Bridge on the River Kwai", likely due to a smaller and less charismatic cast. Nonetheless, it's a very good movie and one of my favorites of the genre.

Your mission: use stealth, cover and concealment while searching for this cache. Failure to sign the log could spell trouble for your fellow soldiers. No air drops into this area; it's too wide open and enemy traffic is high.

PLEASE REPLACE THIS CACHE EXACTLY WHERE YOU FOUND IT!

The log is tiny. Initials only please!
