Take notice; the Lisbon Ohio event remains one of the best on our schedule. This event is held on plenty of acreage with just the right varying terrain to produce some very interesting scenarios. There is a period style log house in a picturesque orchard not far from a period style covered bridge of which we used in our scenarios. Let me say this the camping there is supreme and the event organizers could not have been more accommodating. My hat is off to Mary Spooner for putting off one of the best organized events we attend. We wanted for nothing and many perks were provided, the concessions were first rate and reasonably priced. Please consider this event for your 2007 schedule it is a high quality event.
Our thanks to the 66th OVI for putting on what we were told was a first rate judged tactical and to Captain Rob Shick their commander for leading the 1st battalion. Birneys Division 2nd Battalion was skillfully led by our very capable 2nd battalion commander Lt Col Chris Smith and the entire Brigade was led by Col Paul Baltzer of Birney's Division, a job well done. I wish also to thank Capt Doug Taylor and his gun crew for an amazing job on the gun line which saved our bacon more than once that weekend. Our counterpart Capt Jim Powell of 2nd Regiment PACS was a joy to work with and did a great job on the field and in the scenario planning. It is always a pleasure to work with PACS commanders and it goes to show that the Shenandoah Valley Alliance is working well.
We look forward to this event on the coming season and look to see many more of you there to enjoy this great event.
Your Servant,
Edward L. Kelley Sr., Major General
Federal First Division, 2nd Brigade
Birney's Division
Commanding
