Gents,
We are just a few days away from Zoar and here are some updates and need-to-knows. Please make sure you pass these on you your entire unit.
REGISTRATION:
As of the registration on September 11th, Birney's has 76 infantry on paper. Here is what we are showing as a breakdown:
5th Ind. Ohio Sharpshooters - 5
83rd PA Vol. Co. I - 6
114th OVI - 2
61st Co. D - 2
105th OVI - 27
5th Ohio - 9
9th PA Res. - 4
114th OVI - 2
HQ - 1
9th OVI - 7
4th OVI - 11
I am not clear on which 4th OVI is represented on the report. There is a chance it is a combination of both.
There are currently 55 from the US Volunteers, and potentially 25 from Vincent's. These numbers may go into the Army of the Ohio. 2d Battalion looks to be well over 150 men.
IMPORTANT! Because we have so man reenactors coming, camp setup is critical. Lt Col Skaggs and I will be at the event starting Thursday evening. DO NOT set up your tentage until you check in with the 2d Battalion HQ. The Battalion (including families) will be set up behind the school house off of 5th Street. Look for the 2d Battalion guidon to find headquarters.
TACTICAL MARCH:
For those of you interested in the march prior to the tactical on Sunday, please check in with 2d Battalion HQ no later than Saturday morning. Sergeants, it might be a good idea to get a count when you are turning in your morning reports.
This is the one we have been waiting for the last two years. The weather is going to be perfect, Cool and clear. The numbers are outstanding. I am looking forward to seeing all of you there!!
Submitted;
Lt Col Christopher Smith
Commanding, 2d Battalion
