Current Goal

On April 1st, 2006, America lost a Hero. Retired Capt. Joe Prock with Caddo Fire District Three, was brutally murdered whle attempting to protect his elderly Mother from a group of men that were burglarizing her home. Sadly, the day that "Uncle Joe" died was the first day of his retirement from the Fire service. His killers have been captured but still, my friend and hero will never get to enjoy his retirement. I would like to ask all cachers that handle this TB to please take it all over and let Uncle Joe visit places that he would have got to go if he had not been taken from us.

About This Item

The TB itself is a conglomeration of Fire paraphenelia that I have been collecting. There are two Fire Fighter figures, a patch from Fire District Three, an American Flag dog tag, and a small notepad that hopefully my fellow cachers can sign showing where Uncle Joe has gotten to go.

Went to "Discover this TB at the Humonous Rifle & Creek-side but when I'd read this Goal for this one......it touched my heart and made me cry. This is the most awesome TB I've even seen. Not sure where he will go but we will move him along soon. Snow is coming again and there will be some limits as too where we can go.
