February Enlistments

US Scout · February 19, 2008, 07:39:50 PM

Please join me in welcoming the following new recruits to the Grand Army of the Frontier.

518   SILLY BILLY ID Platte
519   DIRTY DOG DAVE ID Platte
520   Daniel Shealy SC Atlantic
521   MULEE PETE UT Platte
522   BOW VIEW HAYMAKER NE Platte
523   DR BIRNEY ZOUAVE SC Atlantic

Silly Billy and Dirty Dog Dave were both enlisted by Mud Marine.

It took me a bit longer to get to these new enlistments than I had anticipated after returning from my trip overseas. However, now that Bvt Lt Col Eagle Eyes Jefferson is taking over the duties of Enlistment Officer, I won't be able to use that excuse for myself any longer.

Drinks on the new recruits down at the Sutlers.

Welcome to you all, fellow Troopers!

Gen. US Scout, you will also find the application for "the General" (when you get caught up!) and I'd like to welcome HIM as well (I hope I'm not jumping the gun TOO much!

)

Ride to the sound of gunfire!

Regards,

Bvt.Lt.Col. J.C."Steel Horse Bailey"

Welomce fellows, grab a drink, get your ammo, and watch your aim!

Bow View Haymaker posting would be to the Dept. of the Missouri.

Steel Horse Bailey · February 20, 2008, 08:56:11 AM

Same with the General.

Eagle Eyes Jefferson · February 20, 2008, 02:12:27 PM

I understand the obligatory grace period to be 6 months to 1 year for claiming ignorance as an excuse after that I am on my own and have no further recourse. Just kidding. Welcome troopers and enjoy the ride.

EEJ, howdy!

Perhaps YOU have received the General's request for enlistment. All we gotta do is get him a number and put his name "on the books!"

Regards,

Eagle Eyes Jefferson · February 20, 2008, 03:04:11 PM

Hey Steel Horse,

As of this afternoon I had not received the enlistment information on "the General". As soon as I receive it I will get him his number and the appropriate enlistment information. You know how slow this new fangled internet can be. Have a great day and congratulations on your new position, sir. I salute you.

I received "The General's" enlistment application this morning and will forward it to Bvt Lt Col Eagle Eyes Jefferson for processing.

Unfortunately, and for some unknown reason, I've been unable to post messages on The Barracks or send private e-mails from work lately so I'm having to wait until I get home to take care of GAF business.

Eagle Eyes,

If US Scout is receiving the enlistment notices you also should be receiving them automatically. If you are not please let me know ASAP.

Thank you gents. Your attention to this is GREATLY appreciated!

I had an idea that those pre-1900 electrons were perhaps to blame. Well, the "changeover" MAY have something to do with it, too, I guess.

Eagle Eyes Jefferson · February 21, 2008, 04:55:17 AM

Col.

I received the last two but for some reason did not receive the Generals enlistment data. The last two were before the site went down.
