Gentlemen,
Here is the directive from the Brigade on arrival to Manassas. Please see below for Brigade info....
we will NOT have the Regimental streets set up till after 10 on Friday, possibly earlier if the Regimental SGT MAJ and QM set this up. If you are planning on arriving at the manassas site anytime thursday you will need to use the map provided as best as possible and find a place to throw down.. be prepared to move once the regimental SGT Major alligns the unit.
This does not Cancel out the opportunity for those to come out to Sky Meadows as early as Wed and stay through Friday ensuring you are on site at manassas by 6 PM friday for the regimental formation
***6PM Regimental Formation friday*** is the first hard time for the entire group!
Couple of items to be reminded of!
-All men should prepare to bring NO LESS than 120 rounds. I know this is quite a bit, but we are in 4 different scenarios throughout the course of the weekend, the initial Bees engagement and the Henry house hill fight sat and sunday. I know this is more than we are normally using, but i do not want men running out. ARSENAL PACKS too!
-Rounds should be consolidated by the companies NO Later than 8PM friday and turned into Regiment QM dept ref is the SGT MAJ, please get with your Company on this matter!
-Round should be turned in with your company ammo boxes, we will mark with chalk to ensure that we are issuing out the right rounds, again your commanders have the details on your individual unit sprecifics for turn in, you have my turn in time noted.
-There should be a understanding within the company that the rounds WILL BE consolidated, that PVT snuffys awesome arsenal rounds will be mixed in with PVT Sniffys inferior ones. PLEASE ENSURE EVERYONE IS AWARE OF THIS.. I don't want any AARs stating that someone rolled rounds for 5 weeks straight and was issued inferior ones in line.
-Each company should plan on bringing 1-2 ammo boxes. this is where the arsenal packs will be stored.
-Loose rounds will not be accepted, again i know this is a pain, but we need to do this right, and any ordinance officer would NOT issue loose rounds per the regs. There might be some accounts of this happening, but not with us. Sorry
-Please try and have boxes properly marked with dates prior to July 61, again this is a request to make things a little more accurate
-Flys will NOT be set up till the SGT Major has set up the camp. I want this to be as military appearing to the regs, Company Flys will be at the head of the streets with enlisted throwing down IN LINE as orderly as possible.
-Reminder that Company Baggage should only be 1 fly and 1-2 ammo boxes, with essential mess gear consolidated among the company. ***what you carry in the 1-2 ammo boxes is up to the commander***
-I will ask that the Qm dept publish some of their hard times to coordinate with the commanders to ensure that their men are accounted for with ration issues.
-reminder that VEHICLES will NOT be allowed into the camp area, this should also come as a NO Brainer. For those in the companies who will want Fly/Boxes/Mess gear transported we will have the Wagon available to move the items. we know that our camp site from parking is 3/4 to 1 mile away. I ask that commanders coordinate with Cameron Stinnet if they need items transported or if they are able to carry the items into camp
-one of the exceptions for baggage is Music Instruments interpret the way you see fit, though if i had a musician in my Mess I would cross level his gear so that he would be able to carry the entertainment. AKA Music is encouraged!
Thank you gentlemen. Next from me will be a drill reminder in another Post. all Brigade order pertaining to camp/arrival will be pushed on this thread
Two weeks grentlmen!
