Lt. Gen. Thompson To Command VIII Corps

[Joe Meyer]

Congratulations, Pat! I believe that VIII Corps will continue to be in good hands!

Suhs!

Having recently been handed my seat on a tray by Pat Thompson,

Please allow me to be the fustest to buy him a Beer 'n' Whiskey chaser combo and to offer my congratulations in his promotion.

I am so certain that He will be an effective and competent Corps Commander - that I will forgo joining in for now . . .

I gotta get back to CSA HQ and report this development.

Congratulations Pat! <SALUTE!>

Of course, the VIII Corps was Pat's all along and I just filled in for him until he retired. Its all yours,Gen. Thompson, I know the men will do you proud." Quincannon, the first case of whiskey is on me (if my tab allows it)!"
