This Cache will take you to a park with views of the harbor and Manhattan, dedicated to Lieutenant Nicholas Lia (1944–1968), a Staten Island resident who was killed while serving in Vietnam. Lia grew up in St. George near the park. Lia enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps officers training program. As lieutenant, he served two tours of duty in Vietnam as a tank commander, earning a Purple Heart and Gold Star. Lia was killed while placing a landmine in February 1968.
This is a simple park and grab cache, easy to find but definitely in a unique container. The cache is accessible from the side walk and 24/7. This cache even has some muggle proofing built in, so stealth is not that important! Log only, BYOP!
This Cache is a short walk (up hill) from the Staten Island Ferry.
