Nothing like the sound of those two words “ Free Drinks” make mine a extra large anything, and congratulations to the new Division Commander :mrgreen:

What's this I hear? I've been notified by the bartender that my bar tab at the "Clump of Trees" Tavern is now more than my monthly salary. I should have known - General McOmish heard "free drinks", and he's been camped out here ever since! :O

Oh, well. At least it's for a good cause this time. My congratulations to General Swanson on his new assignment!

Now, will some of you men kindly help me get General McOmish back on his horse and pointed back to his own HQ?

While I admire the initiative and enthusiasm of your boys, I encourage you to direct their pyromaniacal tendencies toward the YANKEE taverns. Remember the last time we tried to extinguish a fire here, when someone (who shall remain nameless) accidentally threw a bucket of moonshine on the blaze? Not only did this action result in an inordinate expansion of the inferno, but several of our officers broke down and wept at the waste of perfectly good 'shine. It was a sad affair, indeed.

I think some stopped weeping after more 'shine was found on a hollowed out tree! :mrgreen:
