Hi all, New recruit for the Union army here. I'm looking forward to many battles and learning a lot in the process. I'm a retired computer programmer and live in Pennsylvania, less than an hour from Gettysburg. I have a lot of wargaming experience going back to the Avalon Hill / SPI days. I'm new to John Tiller games though. In a past life I served in the U.S. Marine Corps and spent time in the artillery. So I'm looking forward to all those wonderful Union cannons. I'm anxious to begin the gaming, get to know new friends, and enjoy the club's camaraderie. |

Welcome aboard Mike! Here's to a long and successful career! I'm also in PA about 24-25 miles from Gettysburg, so we're in the same neighborhood. |

Welcome to the Union Army, Michael. I live about two hours west of Gettysburg in Somerset, PA. My youngest son graduated from Gettysburg College in 2001. I've spent many a happy day on the battlefield. You will really enjoy the ACWGC. |

 Bucktails by Dale Gallon First Lieutent Mershon, <Salute> Mike, it's great to have you in the Club!! You're certainly among the many officers of the Pennsylvania Reserves!! I think you all should form some sort of multiplayer team for that!  May you enjoy many years of gaming, fun and camaraderie!! Victory too I guess.... |
