Boys, I can't offer a cash bounty but by golly I can bring pie! If you sign up for Company B in Eichler's batallion, I'll cart some of my wife's excellent fried pies out to Pennsylvania for you.
Sent you another PM. I cleaned out the inbox a while back so don't know why it wouldn't let you send one, but I did a little more housekeeping on it so it should be ready to receive.
I have not seen a PM from you but have sent you one that has links to information about the event and the Missouri impression.
Sorry lads. I forgot to put it on here. Yes, the musket is sold.
Since you seem to be interested in the Missouri Brigade (and why wouldn't anyone not be?) are you aware that a number of us will be doing a portrayal of the 1st/4th MO at the upcoming Vicksburg...
Not to be smug but I didn't eat the deer meat and I was just fine, heh, heh, heh.
I have a very nice '42 if you are interested in such a creature.
Gentlemen: If you are thinking about attending this fine effort and need a place to roost, please consider joining Co. B. Here is a FB page if you are interested:...

Ah, ok that's fine. I appreciate you taking the time to check it out.
There certainly are folks that do newsmen impressions etc and it seems to me you could work this into a very nice impression of a battlefield artist a la Afred Waud or someone similar. It would...
That's interesting and I must have missed it in reading. Do you have a page number that I could get to more quickly? The MO Brigade were issued Enfields in May of 1863 so I am curious as to whether...
Any photos?
Seems to me That answer #26 didn't add anything to the discussion either. While the furniture information is valuable and interesting, the original question wasn't about furniture making tips if you...
Missouri Boot and Shoe has laces.
Folks will do what they want to do. If you're just wanting validation because you want to have a chair in camp, then have a chair in camp. Wanting to have a more authentic chair is commendable but,...
Bill?! You talking about the same guy I'm thinking about? :)
Email sent on the Bender hat.
Gents,
I am raising a Federal company as part of the progressive adjunct at the BGA Gettysburg. We will be Co. B and hold down the left of the line for Col. Eichler. We will be doing an Iron...
To the soldiers of the day, shoes were an expendable part of their every day kit. To us, they are a major investment so we certainly want to get the most for our money. But, I don't think it really...
My Army ROTC unit in the 1970's had a room full of M1 Garands that we pulled from. They were in excellent shape. Wish I had one of those now.
Here is a link to an academic lecture session about various aspects of the war. While some may find it on the dry side, I think there is some good info that many might find interesting. The first...
