Hello,
I'm David Martin and was born, raised and live in Louisiana. As a southerner, I was reared on tales of the War For Southern Independence. One GGGGrandfather served in the 38th Tennessee Infantry(Perryville; Shiloh; Murfreesboro; Chickamauga and Chatanooga) and one served in the 28th Louisiana (Gray's) Infantry (Numerous actions in the Teche Campaign and the Red River Campaign including Mansfield).
I have been a student of The War of The Rebellion all my life. Over the years, despite my heritage, I came to have great respect and admiration for Gen. U. S. Grant and Admiral David G. Farragut.
That's what got me interested in gaming and now I am addicted to the TS BG series. I just wish I could get Mansfield.
Anyway, (with apoligies to R. E., Lee's cousin Admiral S.P.Lee, USN) when it came time to choose my feeling is "When I find the word Louisiana in my Commission I will join the Confederacy".
Special thanks to Col. Tommy Lynn and Gen. Joseph Meyer for their warm welcome.
Warmest Regards,
Cadet David Martin {salute}
