Announcement - Unit Award

[M. Lichtenberg]

Officers of the Army of the Cumberland,

I am honored to award the Gold Muster Medallion to the 1st Division “Cumberland Rifles” Twentieth Corps. The officers of this fine division have achieved a 100% muster rate for the past 6 months.

Additionally, several individual awards will be announced within in the week in the Army’s report for April. Keep an eye out and please don’t shoot my messenger.

This week I have been called to a "commander’s conference" (I am on a business trip in Huntsville Alabama) and my staff work is suffering. I hope to have the monthly report completed by the weekend.

Mark Lichtenberg
Lieutenant General, United States Volunteers
Commanding 14th Corps, Army of the Cumberland
