Alabama Division Sons of Confederate Veterans Celebrate Robert E. Lee's Birthday

Members of the SCV Camp 1524 Prattville Dragoons attended the Alabama Division's celebration of Robert E. Lee's birthday at the Alabama State Archives on Saturday January 14th.  1st Lt Cmdr Rob Schwartz, Quartermaster Bill Myrick and compatriot Tyrone Crowley represented Camp 1524 at the annual observance honoring one of America's greatest leaders, a man of exceeding character and integrity.  Division Commander Mike McMurry welcomed all who gathered on Saturday morning in the Archives auditorium in downtown Montgomery.  Talented Mutt Cooper provided music for everyone to enjoy as part of the program agenda.  Greetings were conveyed by representatives of other heritage organizations including the MOSB, the Order of the Confederate Rose and the SCV Mechanized Cavalry.  Past SCV Commander in Chief Chris Sullivan was the keynote speaker of course speaking of General Robert E. Lee.  Following a closing which included the singing of "Dixie" the Dragoons visited the First White House of the Confederacy next door which had just resumed Saturday hours and then all enjoyed a couple of famous dogs at Chris' Hot Dogs on Dexter Ave there in downtown Montgomery.
