How about paid geocachers on every cities bomb squad to help prevent geocaches from being blown up any more. We geocachers need work too.

As a petroleum truck driver (JP8 & MOGAS) and tactical convoy commander for two tours in Iraq (2003 & 2006) I thank SGT Byrd for his difficult job well done. Explosive Ordinance Disposal units put their lives on the line multiple times to keep my soldiers and myself safe. THANK YOU.

PS After coming home from Iraq with a GPSr I searched the internet to see what else I could use a GPSr for. This is how I found geocaching. Released from AD 12/30/06 found first cache 1/19/07.

Thanks for sharing. By the end of the year I will be on the ground in Afghanistan. I am in the Royal Navy and have recently worked in a combat support role with the Royal Marines. They do try to teach people that work with them to spot an IED since it a common method of attack. However, it is absolutely true that nothing prepares you better that geocaching to spot an IED or navigate across any terrain.

This is such a great video, and his personal story is even better. Met him at the Lost and Found event. Sorry guys, the TB number is for individuals who have personally seen the tattoo.
