  • The Return of Marmaduke's Raid, April 4-7 2013

    Marmaduke's Raid II (or Son of Marmaduke's) will be April 4-7, 2013 so mark your calendars. The land is secured and Frank Aufmuth is putting the event together and should have an event website up within a couple of weeks.

    I will be the overall Confederate commander and Eric Fair will be my worthy counterpart on the Federal side. If you are interested in raising a CS company please let me know. I cannot speak for Eric but I would assume he would be open to interested commanders getting in touch with him also. The event will also have a significant opportunity for civilian impressions and more will follow on that.

    If you took part in the first one you know how good it was and if you didn't; well here's your chance.

      Awesome.. Just awesome. I'll put this on my calendar. The first event was one of the most memorable events that I've been to. I'll chat it up with my guys.

          If any of you Frank, or if you attended the last Marmaduke's Raid, you know this will be a good one.

          As Michael says above, if you have interest in raising a Federal company, let me know!

            Good news!

            Is this going to be at the same location as the predecessor?

                  Will there be partisans at this one as well?

                      Possibly John. The event is just in planning stages as far as impressions are concerned. More info will follow on that one.

                        My sentiments exactly Mr. Lloyd. I had given up all hope for a while there.

                              Well, if you wear that yaller shirt, I believe I can pick you out again in a crowd of locals. I certainly enjoyed Marmy's Raid I as a federal, so I plan to stick with the Union.
