Colonel Boling has been named this date as the new Commander of the Union Army of the Potomac, succeeding General Michael Osborne.
A Change-Of-Command ceremony has been planned for this evening within the Parade Ground & Mess Tent of the Union Army Headquarters Forum.

Col. Boling <salute>!

Congratulations!

FYI for the CSA: He's a Grant, not a McClellan! The citizens of Richmond should be advised to pack their precious possessions.

So the citizens of Richmond should start packing their precious possessions in order to move to Washington??? Is that what you're implying??? I'll send some of my boys to scout the way ahead :)

Salute to General Osborne for his outstanding command tenure, and congratulations to Colonel (P) Boling for his selection to command the mighty Army of the Potomac! (We're confident Gen. Dortch's reference to Grant has nothing to due with Col. Boling's well-documented affinity for drinking the hard stuff :-)
