Official ACWGC Union Army General rank promotion announcements, command appointments and UA awards are made on the Parade Ground. The Mess Tent serves as a casual place for all club members to socialize, drink or have a meal, as long as they spend Yankee dollars! And, as much as we like to accommodate our Southron brethren, they will not be able to vote in any polls held here, or gain access to the restricted areas.
OFFICERS OF THE ACWGC UNION ARMY, ATTENTION TO PARADE!
General Dave Danner, having announced his intention of stepping down as Commander of the Union Army of the Cumberland, is hereby relieved of that assignment. Lieutenant General Doug Shaw is officially announced as the new AotC Commander, assuming his duties effective this date.
CITATION FOR THE OUTSTANDING SERVICE COMMENDATION
GENERAL DAVID DANNER
General David Danner, is hereby awarded the Union Army's Outstanding Service Medal and Ribbon, for his dedicated service as Commander of the Union Army of the Cumberland. General Danner very capably and steadily performed his duties, cheerfully, graciously and aggressively as the occasions demanded. His constant oversight of the welfare of the Union Army of the Cumberland and his frequent contributions to the Union Army Command Staff marked him as a keen, knowledgeable and dependable asset to the good order and functioning of his command. This was the General's second tour as the AotC AC, and his second, very well earned OSC.
OFFICERS OF THE ACWGC UNION ARMY, Present, ARMS! Order, ARMS! Parade, DISMISSED!
Please join me in saluting General Danner for his service accomplishments, and in well-wishing Lieutenant General Shaw to his new command!
General Jos. C. Meyer,
Union Army Chief of Staff
Commander, Army of the Shenandoah (2011-2014 UA GinC)
