Union embarrassed once more
Yet again our brave boys of Green and Rippers division have conducted a significant number of “lightening” strikes on unsuspecting yankee troops. Whilst the north may call them guerrillas and thiefs, General Green welcomed back the return of the 1st and 2nd Virginia Cavalry as hero's.
“There was no dilly dallying about the outcome of the raid. Once again we have embarrassed these Yankee’s. We had three very successful hits on their facilities. Our boys have done what was considered impossible. What’s more, they returned with some 120 supply wagons, roughly the same amount that was captured after Chickamauga” said General Green.
He went on to say that “My men once again informed me that General Holt-Oglethorpe’s still had a nasty look. However, Chickamauga meant that he’s also sporting a good left hook. Mindful of my own hand injury that I sustained at Gettysburg, they do say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!”
