Geocache Description:


This Geocache is not at the posted coordinates!

 

At the posted coordinates is a historical marker that reads as follows:

Dyersburg Army Airfield

Halls, Tennessee

The airfield located one half mile east of here was in operation from 1942 to 1945.  Thousands of airmen took their last statewide training here before going into combat overseas.  Training received here in flying B-17 Flying Fortresses played a key role in preparing U.S. bomber crews for combat in World War II.

To find the actual location of the cache container you need only answer the following question: How many engines powered the B-17, Flying Fortress?

1) If the B-17 had only one engine, the cache can be found at: N35° 53.975'  W089° 25.242'

2) If the B-17 had two engines, the cache can be found at: N35° 53.681'  W089° 25.135'

3) If the B-17 had four engines, the cache can be found at: N35° 53.652  W089° 25.396

Happy hunting and be sure to bring a pen.
