Private GatorMeister above
 

  On March 21, 2004, Private Gatormeister was taken hostage from the fifth bunker on the COMBAT field of Juno Hills by the FootTRAX troop. Until today, Private Gatormeister was at an undisclosed location. His whereabouts are currently being disclosed in CODE MISSION form. It is imperative that Private Gatormeister be recaptured by another troop, as increased chatter has lead us to believe that Troop Gatorman and Troop Hikemeister have made it their mission to be the first to save Private Gatormeister. It is possible that if their mission is not intercepted, Private Gatormeister will be taken to a new location, one that would require Special Forces for his recapture.
The rescue mission contains 8 steps, similar to that of the COMBAT mission from which Private Gatormeister was seized. However, due to increased security, the mission was made micro. You will be looking for 5 camouflaged micro-ammo boxes and two camouflaged boxes, which can not be described on the internet due to continuous security efforts. Among these unidentified boxes, several soldiers may search you. Beware! If you are able to approach them prior to others, you may wish to detain and tag them as your own. It is under strict military order that any men you detain be bugged and kept among other military missions. Please do not detain military men if you do not wish to participate in further missions. Simply sign the mission log and proceed to debriefing. Important mission requirements include the following: 1. Wear protective gear 2. Prepare to be on this mission for several hours 3. Bring necessary fuel 4. Bring paper and a pencil to record coordinates 5. Bring hand cuffs, rope, or duck tape, which ever you see fit for the seizing of Private Gatormeister. Intelligence deems it necessary to inform all that are interested in Saving Private Gator Meister, that as with all caches hidden in the woods of South Florida, you will be among snakes, bees, gators, and other wildlife. This can be a part of the joy of caching if you are aware of such beings. It is also an integral part of geocaching that you remain undercover, as civilians often do not accept such geocache missions and will make it their mission to drive you out. It is not encouraged that you drive vehicles into areas that are prohibited. A portion of this park is under construction, however, the public is not being prohibited from enjoying the park. Use your geocache senses while retrieving geochaches. For this cache you may wish to park at the Okeeheelee Park across the street. Please do not attempt to save Private Gator Meister if you feel threatened by your surroundings. It is also not recommended that you take Private Gator Meister from this cache if you thought it was a too challenging, as you will find the real "Combat" challenging as well and may not be able to bring Private Gator Meister to his base.
