GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL.

Congrats Lieutenant,

It must have been all my blood at Rhode Island that put you over the top.

Congratulations Andy.

Congrats Andy. Glad to see you made such a good rank!

"Inferior officers."

But of course!

Congratulations Andy. Glad to see you joined the right army in this club.

General Walter and Noble Gentleman,

It is heartening to hear that Papa's postal order buying my advancement arrived on the last packet boat. Let's down some grog, at my pocket's expense, before whipping some order into these rebels.

GOD SAVE THE KING
