Geocache Description:

Very durable heavy duty lock and lock placed on the border of a remote cemetary in Searsmont.  The choice of the name of this cache was as much a tribute to what and who is in the Laselle-Drinkwater cemetary as the fact if was placed on Veteran's Day, 2012.

Herbert Raymond Butler was a life long resident of Searsmont.  He proudly served in the US Army and saw action a Ardennes, Central Europe, Normandy and Northern France during WW 11. Park in the parking spot outside the cemetary and walk in to his grave and give him a big salute back!  Then, it's "Left turn, march!"  Do so until you get to clump of 9 maples. The cache is nearby.

The cache is full of goodies including an uncirculated Geocoin Club trackable geocoin and matching pathtag.  I have also included an original US Marine Corps coin that soldiers that complete the crucible receive. This is not a trackable coin but I would like to see it travel and enjoyed by those who have either served, have family that have served or have loved ones currently serving....probably means almost all of us! Congratulations to tandemstoker for the very quick FTF!
