Parade, DISMISSED!

Please join me in saluting this fine officer for his excellent performance in the prosecution of this war.

Congratulations Brigadier General Flaherty, a well deserved award.

The Kearny Cross is probably my favorite award, not only is it based on a real ACW Medal it is given for successful actions in battle.

Well done sir! Congratulations on a decoration well deserved. Remind me sometime to tell you how I earned mine fending off the Hampton Legion with nothing more then my saber and really mean mule. However you had better have a generous tab to hear it.....

<<SALUTE>>

A grand and well deserved honor sir. <<salute>>
