Union officers! I would like to report back that I took an espenage horse ride down to North Carolina (near Raleigh) to see how our War of Attrion was working. I have to report that the CSA has developed a new weapon called "Liquid Gold!". I went to several craft beer taverns and tried some of the stuff. I can confirm the the material does boost the morale of the population and they soon forget the troubles of war.

Rebels officers where in great spirits to the reports that all new supply wagons will carry a couple barrels of the secrete elixire.

If this secrete weapon reaches the Southern troops we'll have our work cut out for us. I've tried my best to destroy as much material by drinking it but the ease that they are able to reproduce it is troublesome; it left me with a headache trying to find a solution.

Not to leave the mission empty handed, I had a couple "crawler" cans filled with " The Meaning of Life" mix. Hopefully when I get back to Michigan I can open one and sample it with our Corps engineers. Hope we can duplicate the weapon and counter this Southern threat.

It was reported that this secret weapon was under the supervision and development of General Cam McOmish. It was mentioned that he intended to use the liquid weapon as a recruiting device as well.

Well the secret is out, so Yes General Hampel can confirm that the CSA Chemical Warfare Division has been hard at work making craft beers, however it has never been deployed as a weapon because I have been drinking most of the test batches and it looks like you have got the rest. You must make a trip to the deep deep deep south and try the beer down here - craft beer and just damn good beer is being produced and drunk and ever greater quantities, and I am doing my bit to help the industry and my waistline expand further.

Gen. Kunz,

Thanks for the warning. I'll send a couple Cavalry detachments out that way and inform them to be on high alert for anyone who replies with "While yes Suh". A dead giveaway for a CSA officer. . I wouldn't want you getting through and trying to build diplomatic relations with Canada or Britian. I know our blockades are working pretty good but potential border runners through west and central Canada could be another issue.

Have a great trip Nick!!

Why Suh I shall take you up on your offer, been to Texas once and the beer offerings were slim. Good to hear that the situation is improving
