    So, you think that scrap in the East is rough, do you?
    Ever consider what it means to be captured by Apaches?

    I saw the photos Shiloh NMP posted on their Facebook page. The 15th Iowa looked fantastic!

    Mess No. 1 is in the Mystery Machine driving home from Shiloh right now. Before everyone gets rolling on the AAR's, we just want to thank the men of the 15th Iowa for putting together one of the best Federal impressions I have seen in the field.

    More importantly, we want to thank the WIG event staff for all of their hard work. We especially want to thank Matt Woodburn for his vision and for his enthusiasm in spearheading the event. Matt, you set the tone for the event, and we truly appreciate everything.

    Full AAR to come later. Hard to type in the car.
    Sincerely,

    A big thanks and a tip of the Hardee to all those that made the 15th Iowa adjunct possible. I had a blast, as well as my friend who was introduced to his first campaigner event.

    Thanks again, and hope to see you all soon!

    Re: Shiloh AAR

    You guys looked fantastic. I wish I could have been with you, but had other obligations, fortunately serving under great guys like Dom Dal Bello and Cal Kinzer and in a good company with a lot of AoP guys, but when you marched buy, the guys in my company were all cheering you. Great job, well done.

    Had an amazing time, my thanks to Col. Matt and the wig. This will be something I will never forget. On a side note if you are like me and just getting home check for tics! I had at least 8 found on me so make a quick check. But once again thanks to all involved it was great and a big thanks to Co. H

    Seeing you guys march onto the field both days was amazing. Made me and fellow pards wish we had signed up had we not made prior commitments.
