Thanks from the Chief of Staff

To all the members of Birney’s Division,

I had tried to shake as many hands and thank everyone after the event for the fine job they had done all week at the 150th celebration, however the good Lord thought it was time to cool us all down and opened the sky on us. This past week’s event was HOT, VERY HOT, but our people endured and came out in force, creating a great impression on the field. No, not all the battles were stellar events, but our troops directed by their commanders fought each one like it was 1863.

It was an honor to command such a fine group of individuals and it is with sincere appreciation and gratitude that I say thank you for supporting Birney’s Division our Major General Ed Kelley and his staff. We are very fortunate to have one of the best organizations in reenacting today. We see several other established reenactor groups continue to decline, while ours continues to grow, only proving our members are special and appreciate the atmosphere we have all developed over the years.

Respectfully,
Brig. Gen. Mike Maffei
Chief of Staff, Birney’s Division
