Hey All,
Well after touring the site with the commanders and most of the company officers on 4/20 I wanted to give the federal boys some info, some previously submitted and some not.
CORPS BADGES: The White Star
BJ Zirkle offers the following:
"The standard "issue" badges run $1.50 each.
Of course I can add "goodies" such as regimental numbers and so forth. Those are typically $4.50 each and are also plated in 18k gold, like the third option shown above.
Wool center with beaded wire edges: $8.50 each
Wool or velvet center with fully embroidered edges: $35.00 each
Gilt brass framework with wool center, solid brass back & t-bar pin: $75.00 each

ROUNDS
Have at least 60 rounds prepackaged. We will not have any issue so carry all rounds with you.
RATIONS
Rations will be issued Saturday morning so prepare accordingly for Friday night.
KNAPSACKS AND BLANKET ROLLS
We will be under arms the entire event so pack accordingly for we'll be carrying our gear most of the time.
IMMERSION
The organizers have worked hard to create as immersive ean vent as possible. With that said First Person is our watchword.
BUGLE
Get to know the bugle calls for camp and skirmish. I know old news but it is important for our event.
PIONEER PLATOON
Make sure you have plenty of shovels, picks and axes for you will need all three.
MILES AND HILLS
We will not be marching the miles of the last Picketts Mill but there are still two elevations we must get over so continue getting in condition. The organizers have traded miles for other immersive activities we think you'll like.
EVENT SCHEDULE
The schedule is known by key officers and... well that's about it so come to the event and enjoy.
See ya at Picketts Mill
