MILITARY SERIES – After spending 20 years in the military and retiring in 2000 as a First Sergeant from the Wisconsin Army Reserve National Guard, I decided to create this series and dedicate it to all of the men and women that served before me, with me, after me, serve today and those who will serve in future generations.
Each of the caches in this series is named after a unit, position, rank or other significant event during my military career.
While some of these may be an easy find, others may require some creative and critical thinking. Look at the rating for each cache as they will vary within the series.
Private E-2 (PV2)(E-2): The basic pay grade and rank entering the U.S. Army is Private E-1. No rank on the collar. I was fortunate enough to skip this rank and I entered active duty as an E-2, otherwise know as mosquito wings! How did I get so lucky? My senior year in high school, I enlisted under the delayed entry program. I got credit for two others enlisting after I did, so I was promoted before I ever shipped! This allowed me to skip the rank of Private E-1!
Congratulations to kalkranz on the FTF on this Cache Ba$hless weekend!
