Geocache Description:


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.

Staff Sergeant (SSG)(E-6): During the time that I was a 2LT, I also got hired by the West Bend Police Department. I needed to attend my 4 month Officer Basic Course for the military while at the same time I was on probation as a new officer for the Police Department.  The Chief at the time was not supportive of the military and I was concerned that if I went to my Officer Basic Course, that I may not have had a job to come back to.  I chose to resign my Lieutenant position and put myself into a squad leader position within the same platoon. Working closely with the new Platoon Leader and Platoon Sergeant, I served the platoon as the Training NCO, ultimately doing about 75-80% of both the Platoon Leader's and Platoon Sergeant's job! Of special note here, if you have done my other rank related caches, you will see that I skipped the rank of Sergeant E-5!

Congratulations to Lobsters9494 and kalkranz on the co-FTF on this Cache Ba$hless weekend!
