ATTENTION TO PARADE!
This parade is called to honor the service rendered as the Union Army of the Potomac Commander over the course of the last year and a half by General Philip Roubaud.
CITATION FOR OUTSTANDING SERVICE MEDAL
GENERAL PHILIP ROUBAUD
For his continuous service from August 15th, 2010, as the Commander of the Union Army of the Potomac, General Philip Roubaud is awarded the Union Army's Outstanding Service Medal. General Roubaud's personal contribution of time and energy in this role over the last eighteen months has been complimented by his ready and studied involvement within the Union Army Command Staff conferences, where his voice and thoughts on the general direction and good order of the Union Army have been well received. He undertook the AotP commander's role at the personal request of General Dierk Walter, at a time when few other officers were able to make the commitment, and brought with him his experience as not only an officer of the Army of the Cumberland, but also those as an officer of the Army of the Shenandoah. General Roubaud maintained the AotP command amid a number of hardships and challenges, keeping that organization cohesive and viable in spite of the losses it sustained in personnel, bringing it safely to a point of order wherein it is now poised to be reorganized and revitalized. As he now relinquishes his position as head of the AotP and returns to the familiar encampment of the Army of the Cumberland, it is proper and right to acknowledge the service he has rendered with this award.
This is the General's first such award!
