I have charge of mustering these regiments into the State service.

Going home for a day or two soon after a conversation with General Pope. #mymethods

Strike the tents!

Ha! The men only needed someone to give them a command. Onward boys!

I had now been in battle with two leading commanders conducting armies in a foreign land. The contrast between the two was very marked.

Out loss at Belmont was 485 killed, wounded and missing.

@shaydeanrap Enjoy your stay. We'll whip those rebel boys yet.

We have all the bayonets we need, I don't know why we're having this discussion.

Kentucky long rifles won the war with the British why can't my scouts use them! I wish I was sole command of the supply lines.

I'm a methodical man.
