Greetings Fair Gentlemen,

I am pleased to provide for introduction Cadet Gary O'Brien who hails from the great country of Canada but has respectfully volunteered to serve the Union in these times of deep anxiety. A former soldier of his country and loyal servant of his Queen I am a lifetime wargamer and committed acolyte of the WDS game systems. I have just completed my training time under the fine stewardship of Gen Scott Eichelberger and look forward to the fields of glory.

Despite hailing from the land of snow you will find me a warm fellow who asks lots of questions and works diligently. Thank you for accepting me into this fine body of gentlemen. I will play any title and would consider myself a firm Historical bent to gaming.

Welcome to our highly esteemed Club, Gary! You are a welcome addition to the ACWGC, and to the Union ranks in particular. Our beloved but misguided cousins to the South are in need of some corrective action on the battlefield. Wishing you the best luck of the Irish in your future exploits! <Salute>

Mr O'Brien,

Welcome to the ranks of the ACWGC if not those of the Confederate States Army.

A warm demeanour, enquiring mind and diligent worker will endear you within the ranks I dare say.

With a name like O'Brien I can only assume you are headed for an Irish Brigade assignment.

Good luck and good fortune for the future Gary

Welcome to the forum Gary - I know I sent you a brief bit of a group email a little bit ago, however not exactly the same thing. I'm a bit of a victim of global timezones (otherwise I would have been by earlier).

Welcome to the federal arms, mate. :) Looking forward to your future endeavours.

Dear Sir,

Congrats on your recent training. Should you wish to seek immediate battle please let us know. Nicodemus, our divisional mascot is pretty hungry, and a Canadian bluebelly might be good for a change of diet!

Best to you sir!
