IRVINE, Calif.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Location Based Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:LBAS), a leading service provider of personal, pet and asset GPS locators and devices, today announced that it will provide PocketFinder devices for the aResolve & Remembrancea 9/11 journey. The journey involves a piece of steel which was cut from the World Trade Center and will travel from Carmel, N.Y., to Carmel, Calif., as it is passed from fire department to fire department across the country.

"The PocketFinder GPS Locator will allow everyone to follow the steel in near real time."

After learning of a request for a 9/11 memorial by a firehouse in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif., and after much persistence, Carmel resident Carrie Ann not only secured a piece of steel from the World Trade Center, but also partnered with the Monterey Firefighters Association ([ www.montereyfirefighters.org ]) to orchestrate the multi-city expedition and PocketFinder ([ www.pocketfinder.com ])to donate its GPS system for those interested in tracking the steel as it travels across the U.S.

Ann started the project to not only keep her promise of getting a memorial on the west coast for the Carmel-by-the-Sea firefighters but to also allow communities outside of New York the opportunity to see and touch a piece of history as they remember Sept. 11, 2001. Members of the Monterey Firefighters Association will fly to New York City to participate in the steel cutting ceremony on March 19. FDNY firefighter Carl Scheetz will cut a 12" x 15" x 2" piece of steel from the remaining World Trade Center beams.

aThis is not my project; it belongs to all of America,a said Ann. aI am only the person who helped get the journey started to create a memorial to give honor to the men and women of 9/11. This journey is for those who have hidden and tucked away their emotions to find release, as it will hopefully bring light and a beautiful and peaceful memorial to Americans across the country and ultimately an eternal monument on the west coast.a

aWe are beyond honored be a part of this journey as we hope to connect Americans across the country with this poignant memorial that recognizes the valiant heroes and brave men and women who died on 9/11,a said Dave Morse, Chief Executive Officer of PocketFinder. aThe PocketFinder GPS Locator will allow everyone to follow the steel in near real time.a
