Blue Star Military Geocoin #8

I Picked Up This GeoCoin While Down At GW6. I Was Able To Meet The Creator Of This GeoCoin. He Was Very Nice & After Chatting About The Great GeoCoins We Have. We Stared Talking About A Sample GeoCoin I Had Recieved From OakCoins. The Gold Star GeoCoin. My Husband Started Talking About The GeoCaches He Found While In Iraq & That We Wanted To Send Copies Over There Of The GeoCoin. When He Heard That My Husband Was In The Service. He Told Us He Had Found ONE More Of This Wonderful GeoCoin While He Was Getting Ready For GW6. Our Lucky Day!!! Thank You!!! This GeoCoin Will Attend Events. You Might Find A COPY Traveling From Cache To Cache playing in the game. Keep it moving!

This GeoCoin Is Very Special. It Was Given To My Husband From The Creator. Thank You For This Thoughtful GeoCoin & Adding To Our Collection!!! Check Out The Picture!!!

The Soldier

It is the soldier, not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the soldier, not the campus organizer,
who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the soldier,
who salutes the flag,
who serves under the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.

 ***IF YOU FIND A COPY or PROXY:  I hope that you enjoy my trackable. If you don't like moving a COPY then Please leave it in the cache or only Discover it. I have over 200 original trackables that have been released in the game. Only a small handful are still active and this trackable may have been one of them. I have decided to keep the new and remaining trackables at home. I now send out Copies or Proxies for them. If you went out of your way to see an original trackable, I post photos on every trackable page and you still get the Icon for Discovering or Moving it. Please, Respect that the Owner does Not want another of their trackables Lost, Stolen or Destroyed. I am trying to share my Collection with other geocachers. I have invested Thousands of $$$  in my trackables and I could just hoard them but I have chosen to enhance the Geocaching game by putting out Copies or Proxies. My Copies and Proxies cost me money as well. I try to make them fun to find but easy to replace. Please don't post Rude or Obnoxious comments. Instead try to remember that it took time to put together what I send out for you to enjoy. Why should I be Punished Verbally because I did not send out an Original Trackable? This note has been added to all of my traveling trackable pages weather I have the original in hand or it is MIA. I hope to not only detour the harsh comments I have had in the past but to also make other geocachers aware that they too can send out COPIES or PROXIES for their MIA Trackables. If my trackable has not moved in over two years, I send out a Copy or Proxy. Thank you for taking the time to read all of this. Happy Trails, McKenzie~Binns
