Geocache Description:

[Adopted from spink167.]

Coordinates are for parking, and a good place to start.

Final is 35mm a couple of miles away.


"The Greatest Generation" is a term to describe the generation who grew up in the United States during the Great Depression, and then went on to fight in World War II.

The term "The Greatest Generation" originated from Tom Brokaw's 1998 book of the same name. In the book, Brokaw wrote, "it is, I believe, the greatest generation any society has ever produced." He argued that these men and women fought not for fame and recognition, but because it was the "right thing to do."

To get coordinates for the final, you will have to visit some heroes of the greatest generation.

Some pretty interesting people.
