Geocache Description:

This cache is part of a series of presidential caches.

These caches will come in a variety of sizes, difficulties and terrains.
They will be placed all across the area. Hopefully everyone will enjoy finding them.

Harry S. Truman was U.S. president number 33. He was born on May 8, 1884 in Missouri, and died on December 26, 1972. He became president on April 12, 1945 when Franklin Roosevelt died just three months into his fourth term, and was president until January 20, 1953, serving as a Democrat. He had teh responsibility for guiding the country to the end of World War II. His greatest impact while in office was in foreign policy. He was committed to containing the spread of Communist influence in the world. He stopped Communist takeovers in Greece and Turkey, and prevented the Soviet Union from pushing the west out of Berlin. He also presided over the Marshal Plan for rebuilding Western Europe after the war. He urged the UN to intervene in Korea, which led to our participation in that conflict.

This should be an easy cache. If you are heading out this way to try your luck at some “evil” caches, you might want to make a quick stop for this one.
