Evening Everybody!
As we continue to move forward on Corricks Ford, we have reached the next phase. Tonight, we are announcing our Overall Commanders for the event. Our goal is to begin assembling the companies to be ready for registration in January of 2015. We have already had some requests for companies and now that we have commanders in place, we want to get that ball rolling.
To put things into perspective in terms of numbers, we are looking for around 250 Confederates and 150 Federals. The goal is for thirty man (registered) companies, so, eight Confederate Companies and five Federal Companies. We will assign company designations as we start working with individual company commanders. We will have a small contingent of cavalry that will serve as a bodyguard for the General Staff on the Confederate side. Right now, that is the only cavalry we plan to have. We are also working on wagons and will announce more on that later.
So, without further ado, the Overall Commanders for Corricks Ford are Jim Butler, commanding the 14th Ohio on the Federal side, and Skip Owens, commanding the 23rd Virginia on the Confederate side.
If you are interested in forming a company, please contact Ken Cornett first so we can track the company organization and then we will hook you up with Jim or Skip to work out the details on the military end. Please send an e-mail to Ken at ken.cornett@yahoo.com so we can get you set up.
I think there may be a 23rd Virginia, Company H floating around out there somewhere already. ;)
