I’m still basking in the after glow of our last meeting! Three new Dragoons! It doesn’t get any better than that! We all need to welcome new compatriot S. Knight and reinstated compatriots S. Roberson and J. Hayes. When I assumed command, I made recruiting my
top priority. It still is! Three new Dragoons is a good start. I have asked Adjutant Sutherland to print out
copies of our membership rolls to be distributed at our next meeting. We need to contact inactive members and ask
them to get on board once again.
Quartermaster Myrick says we sold much Confederate memorabilia at City fest this year.
This is a solid indication that there is still distinct interest in our
cause. God told a highly discouraged prophet Elijah in 1st Kings 9:18,
“Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all whose knees have not bowed
unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.” The modern day Baal is the idol of political
correctness aided by the liberal media. Just as Baal was not able to conquer
Israel in Biblical times, we who remain faithful to the charge given to the SCV
by Lt. General Stephen Dill Lee in 1906 we too have remained faithful. The SCV is the modern 7000 who have remained
faithful. Let us renew our efforts!
I want to thank compatriots Tyrone Crowley, David Smith, David
Brantley and Larry Spears for representing our camp at the Division
Reunion. I’ve asked them to give a short
report of what was accomplished there.
Finally I am looking forward to hearing our speaker, Dr. Plunkett. He will be speaking on the
importance of monuments, an important topic in this day and age. He is a gifted speaker and one of a very few
college professors who have not bowed the knee to the Baal of political
correctness. You will not want to miss
hearing him! Looking forward to seeing
all of you there!
Deo Vindice
