Geocache Description:

This is the replacement cache for "Dutch E. Burly, USMC," which was previously at this location.


This cache was originally placed in honor of my friend Nathan, or "Dutch."  He and I used to make weekly cache runs on Mondays before I would have to be at work and he would have to be at PT.  Together we hid the original cache here right before he went to Marine Boot Camp in August 2011.  He has been deployed to both Afghanistan and Yemen, and is currently stationed in California.  We picked this spot for his cache because he used to come through here when he would go for a run.  This will be a very simple puzzle cache, and the actual container is not far from here at all. 

The final coordinates are N 33° 37.A  W 086° 35.B

A = subtract 1557 from the year Trussville officially became a city (not a town)
B = subtract 810 from the year the United States Marine Corp was founded
