Parade, DISMISSED!

Please join me in wishing Lieutenant General DiNola a singularly successful tenure as the new Army of the Potomac Commander! My tab is now open at the bar for all those thirsty enough to drink a toast on this occasion.

Congratulations General DiNola! I hate to see General Meyer go, but am so pleased you will be our CG!

I'll try not to be the headache I was for General Meyer.

Warmest Regards,

David
