Gentlemen, It gives me great pleasure to award Lt. Gen. Paul Swanson the War Horse Medal. This medal is awarded for reaching 1,000 OBD Battle-only points in the DoR. Swanson has been a member of the ACWGC since October of 2020. He has recorded 98 battles in the Department of Records and been victorious in 63 of them! He has commanded a Corps in this army in the past and now serves as a division commander in the I Corps. This is a very special accomplishment and one that takes great dedication and perseverance to achieve. Join me in a toast to the fine general! ![]() |

I thank you kindly for this award. I am very pleased to be one of only seven who have ever received it. A lot of Yankees needed to fall to my sword to achieve it. It shall hold a special place alongside some of my other relatively rare ones: Robert E. Lee Medal (only five of us being awarded it under the current criteria); John Pelham Medal (only three recipients); and last, but not least Whitworth Sharpshooter Medal (although there were a number of recipients in past years I believe I am the only one still with the CSA who has it). |

A nice award and congratulations but I have received the War Horse Medal as well. On second thought, I think that mine was the Pack Mule Medal. Sorry for the intrusion. A round for everybody so as to excuse my intrusion. |

I am pleased to advise that even you made a small contribution to my receipt of that award (13 OBD) although you came out of it with more points than me (17 OBD). |
