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 forward to you trying to take the cup away from us next year!

The superiority of Union training, tactics and manuever are again demonstated on the field of honor. Huzzah!

I know Gen. Nelms will mention me in his will - he'll leave me the tab.
