Geocache Description:

Combining history, faith, duty and tragedy, maccamob’s seventy-fifth cache is set around a small country town west of Ballarat.

At the posted coordinates you will discover a site that is very important to any country town – its war memorial. This one is quite different to the usual cross or statue of a Serviceman in uniform. The church across the road is surprisingly imposing for such a small town, too. Study the memorial carefully, then count the appearances of the following names (a pen and paper may help) to determine the cache location:
NOTE: Use the central memorial only, not the newer side posts.

A = Chibnall
B = Kelly + Nunn
C = Ellis + Hynson + McCook
D = Russell + Stevens
F = Page + Ringin
G = Brown
H = Fenton + Knight
J = Wookey
K = Hanrahan – Aisbett
L = Shields + Gardner

You will find the cache located a few km away at S 37º AB.CDF, E 143º GH.JKL.
It is a quiet, picturesque spot, but there may be logging or woodcutting activity nearby, so be alert. As usual, please ensure the cache is well hidden from casual observation again before you leave, and replace the camo so that it looks as natural as possible.
