Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
Don't worry Dan I plan to stick to my guns literally. Any thought as to what Union regiment you will portray?
Seriously people, this event site is supurb. Anyone who attended "Retreat from Bentonville" can vouch for Dan and how his last event was excellent. I know he will do another great job on this one. I do look forward to attending this one.

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
Jason, the Federal unit has no yet been decided upon. Research is still being done. The Confederate infantry will be portraying two companies of the 12th Virginia, and the Confederate cavalry will be portrying the 2nd Virginia Cavalry.

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
Those Nation Boys that will attend will be there as Confederates.
We had a great time in gray and will do it again.

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
After all the wind I was forced to endure last year when I went blue,
I will be most proud to join them fellers of the 12th Virginia and contend against them damnable tyrants and invaders! And mostly to see what kind of a Johnnie Holler makes!

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
Holler was a Reb last year.. pretty good one too! Think the ole' fella was used to Yank rations, as the Johnnie stuff didn't sit with his stomach too much sat am. He was a trooper though and after removing the rations from his stomach returned to the line and contunied the fight!
Dan is the plan for 1 or 2 CS companies? considering that the companies were pretty limited in numbers for this time of the campaign.

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
I was on pain medication and just took a caffeine pill. Throwing up made me feel much better.
 And yes I am excited to be a reb again. I talked with Brandon Jolly last night and am working on some new gear.

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
Dan,
Thanks for looking for deconflicting options. I was talking with someone about this event last night. We will see what we can pull together from Michigan and get out there as Federals. Head our way in June and we will head yours in July

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
Skip, the plan is to have two small companies, about 10-12 per company. There WILL be a cap on Confederates again this year. The need once again this year will be for the Federals to fill out nicely, as Franklins Corp had an approximate 6-1 numerical advantage at Crampton's Gap.

Re: "The Fight For Crampton's Gap", Blanchardville, Wisconsin.
I'm interested in attending as a Federal, even if it is portraying the God-forsaken Army of the Potomac.
