Gentlemen please welcome Field Lieutenant Karl McEntegart , who has been appointed to command the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division, Stewarts Corps (2nd). Lets charge our Bavarian drinking tankards with whisky and toast our newest officer "Gentlemen I give you Field Lieutenant Karl McEntegart, may his sword stay sharp, his powder dry and his liver strong!". Now lets get Dr Ralph Stanly on the jukebox and party like we mean it.
General Suh, <salute>
I am honoured to have assumed command of the Brigade in this fine Army.
It is my profound intention to keep my sword sharp, tho bloody, my powder dry tho busy and my liver working to the maximum.
We shall, in the finest traditions of the CSA, fight hard and party even harder and the more of each the better, Suh.
I therefore trust that you, Suh, and my fine brother Officers, will allow me the honour of providing the "first round" of the nite and like our musket fire the "rounds" shall be endless and shattering and be damned to the foe, our livers.
I remain your obedient servant, Suh,
Field Lieutenant Karl McEntegart
2 Brigade
1st Division
Stewarts (II) Corps
