    I think I have the clincher for going to visit my relatives in Nashville for Thanksgiving.

      Sounds like it'll be a good one! I plan on being there as long as Uncle Sam doesn't say otherwise.

            ezra parker (aka Sean Cowger). It would be great if you, and fellows from the 36th Illinois could participate, and perhaps form a strong company filled with hard looking Federals, eager for the fight, and with the right attitude to make this event a memorable one. Please contact Will Eichler and offer your services. I'm sure he would be eager to bring you into the 44th Missouri for this event.

              Hi gents,

              Extremely exciting opportunity. I had to bale on Kennesaw with selling our house and building one which happened faster than planned. If I can have most of the crazy work completed, I would be happy to fall in with Jeremy and Will. My wife gave me the OK with being in house mode the next six months.

              Thanks for working on this.

                    We could probably do it. Ironically, my maternal great-grandmother was a Carter from Virginia.

                            My Better Half has kindly already agreed to a kitchen pass for this one. Lovely soul that she is, I think she's sympathetic due to me having missed the entire 150th cycle thus far due to Navy priorities keeping me overseas for the past few years (fortunately, that draws to a close shortly). I'm highly excited to serve as a member of the 20th Tennessee!

                              Yep Dave, it is.


                              There are folks that go to the movies on Thanksgiving weekend. There are folks that go shopping. And there are folks that go to football games (that would be what happens at my house since I've held University of Alabama season tickets for 25+ years. ) And being as this particular effort being publicized is a military one, I'll just say that a bunch of us civilians will be down the road at Rippavilla in a separate effort commemorating the same battle.

                              Folks are crazy in different ways. Thanksgiving weekend comes every year. 150th Franklin comes around once.
