General Kaulbars Sir,

Congratulation on your appointment as Commandant of the Union War College. I know we are in good hands.
General Walters will be sorely missed and you have some very big shoes to fill. But knowing you as I have seen your abilities I have no doubt we are in good hands.
Again Mike Congratulation I <salute> you sir.

Sirs

I thank you for your kind words.

Naturally I am deeply honoured by this appointment, and a little intimidated by the trust that has been placed in me.

The War College is a vital resource and institution and I look to you all to help me keep it as the bulkwark of Union cause that it has been:

- experienced Union Officers as contributers;
- all Union Officers as students of our collective wisdom;
- Rebs by getting thrashed as victims of that wisdom - we all have a role to play.

A good start would be to see the article in the just published first issue from the ACWGC Signals Corps http://www.wargame.ch/board/acw/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8097 and participating in the questionnaire I will be posting shortly in the Quartermaster's Depot.

You'll do fine, Mike. Many thanks for shouldering this burden. As you know, it has been a stepping-stone (!) to higher honors for a couple of people ... providing there *is* a higher honor than taking care of the higher education of the officers of the national army. [^]

General Kaulbars,

I just realized this image was of YOU trying to fill General Walters's boots. At first glance I thought it was of ME trying to sneak in to West Point to eavesdrop [:D] !

Thank you all for your kind wishes. I have been remiss in not declaring an open bar for the occassion, which I am now happy to do.

I do believe they are on to your secret Sir, that there are actually 3 of you, which is how you have managed to acheive so much while fighting so many matches. [;)]

Gen Mallory Sir

Naturally it is up to Gen Ross whether you may enter West Point or not, but I would be honoured to personally give you a tour of the War College. You do understand that some areas are off limits to a Rebel Officer of course.

Indeed any Gentlemen is welcome to do the basic tour of the War College http://home.arcor.de/dierk_walter/WC/index.htm.

Officers of the CSA will naturally leave any arms with the Guard and be accompanied by a Provost, but are otherwise welcome.

So Gen Mallory, I look forward to your visit, and perhaps some day you will do me the honour of battle.
