Reading Pierre's post reminds me to thank him and the others early on who brought the CSA & USA together, and set up the OBD system as an alternative to the ladder concept. That really sets the tone for the club, recognizing that we need each other even while we're trying to beat each other. Gen. Ma...

Well, Gen. Dragan & I are engaged at Jackson, Tennessee, though I seem to have missed the opportunity to honor him with his 200th. Given the battle we're in, though, I may add to the totals in his other column. "Unemotional?" My wife begs to differ! Gen. Matt Perrenod <i>The Blue Ghost</i> Superinte...

A slot's opened up on my card. Prefer an experienced opponent who can manage consistent file turnarounds. Have HPS Getty, Atlanta, Ozark, Corinth, Franklin, Shiloh. Haven't played Corinth in a while, if anyone's interested in that. Reply by e-mail. Gen. Matt Perrenod <i>The Blue Ghost</i> Superinten...

And speaking of classics, I recently had occasion to reread Stephen Crane's <i>The Red Badge of Courage</i>. One wonders what Crane might have produced if he hadn't died at 30. His work was immensely popular among veterans, who like the current counterparts, had difficulty speaking of their combat e...

<i>Lee's Lieutenants </i>is of course the classic study of Civil War organization, command & control. Volume III tends to be overlooked, perhaps because it comes at the end of about 2000 pages. There's a great deal to be learned, however, about a period in which the ANV was arguably at its most prof...

The drinks are on me as the Union Military Academy celebrates its victory over the Vicksburg Military Institute in the third Commandants' Cup tournament. It was close, but after two years in the wilderness, we're pretty pleased with ourselves. To our opponents, thanks for the challenge, and we look ...

I'd be remiss if I didn't add my statement of gratitude to these club members. The cabinet stuff is hard, and frequently thankless. I've enjoyed working with Jeff, and hope Bob & Mark are both willing to stand for another term. Gen. Matt Perrenod <i>The Blue Ghost</i> Superintendent, Union Military ...

Gentlemen - I've returned from my reconnaisance at Portsmouth to report that the <i>Merrimac</i> is <i>gone</i>! Rumors that the Rebs have fixed iron sheets to her and renamed her the <i>Virginia</i> cannot be confirmed, however, as there is no evidence of that sort of work anytime within the last 1...

Ah, Roger, here is where I now find you! 'Twas puzzled by the descent of the IV Corps thread, but now I understand. Probably best that you switched from cavalry to army command, because those horsemen don't do so well in the woods at Shiloh. Congratulations on the speed with which you've reorganized...
