Camp Chase Piece by Cousin Phil

[Gallo de Cielo]

All,

"Cousin Phil" McBride, a ground-pounding veteran of BGR who masterfully piloted his truck into some tough spots to evacuate hurt and ailing men through heat, cold, rain, and sun, has published a very nice write-up of Into the Piney Woods. It appears in the latest edition of the Camp Chase Gazette. Phil wrote a bang-up piece following BGR and has contributed another fine chapter chronicling Piney Woods.

I believe the printed copy has some images from the event so those after a souvenier may want to order a copy.

I found the article linked on their webpage as well, though it is sans pictures.

Thanks greatly Phil. I'm proud to be one of the "7%" and to have been surrounded for the better part of a week by folks of a like mind.

Regards,

Cousin Fred,

That was a fine read from Cousin Phil. Thanks for cross posting it for us electronicly minded fellows.

It did bring back the memories of those days for this marcher...

That article is finely written, Mr McBride. I also liked your Top Ten Things to Remember article.

Re: Camp Chase Piece by Cousin Phil

Great article Phil. I sure hope there is a "3"!

I know it was a logistical and stressful nightmare for the organizers, but even if shortened was one of the best event and most memorable experiences.

Thank you for that opportunity.
