      Re: BUMMERS Registration Open!

      Eric,

      Will there be any caissons that I should be aware of so I don't form my men in a firing line over them, a la Rich Mountain? (Insert Palin Wink here.)

      Looking forward to another event with your boys. But now it's time for gobble gobble. Gosh it's great to be an American!

      Thankfully,
      Michael P. Jolin

        Georgia Militia

        Macon Telegraph - August 2, 1864

        Sixteen hundred of the Georgia militia started from Macon for Atlanta.

        They made a fine appearance as they marched through the streets; were in the very best spirits, and appeared ready to meet the enemy in the defence of their homes. The material of this brigade is as good as that of any in the South, and we are certain they will do honor to the State when brought into action. A similar number will go down to Atlanta each day during the week from this place. There is now a large force of militia at Macon, which, when sent to the front, will prove a valuable accession to our gallant army.

        His Excellency Governor Joseph E. Brown, Generals Joseph E Johnston, B, Bragg, Anderson, O

        Tennessee, Wayne and Illadman, were all in Macon on Sunday.

        A large number of wounded Yankees have arrived in Macon. A large number of prisoners also continue to arrive on every train.

                That's not really a surprise, Ken. There IS a lower cap number on the Militia side...not to mention yanks are good at dragging their a$$!:wink_smil:tounge_sm

                        I was heavy into Joe Brown's Pets. My ancestors were FLA militia vols as well, There is a alot of commonality there. Would give a kidney to do a proper milita impression.

                              Michael:

                              Thanks for signing up! Welcome aboard. We are hoping that we can get people registered and in their proper slots well-ahead of the event in case we need to re-organize foraging parties. Remember that the regimental designation isn't official until there are at least twenty registered for that Foraging Party.
