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!
As of this date, August 27th, 2013, and in accordance with the provisions of the Appointments to Command and Staff Positions, General Order No. 3, Union Army Standing Orders, Lieutenant General Frank DiNola, Commander of the V Corps, Army of the Potomac is appointed by my hand as Commander of the Army of the Potomac. I hereby relinquished the command of that field army to him, enjoining the officers of the AotP to pay their respects to him and continue with him the commitment that they have so assiduously shown to me.
OFFICERS OF THE ACWGC UNION ARMY, Present, ARMS! Order, ARMS! 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.
General Jos. C. Meyer,
Union Army Chief of Staff
Commander, Army of the Shenandoah (2011-2014 UA GinC)
