Well as I said last month I am getting older and ya know old people we always are looking back so below is a visit to 2010.

 I have enjoyed doing the newsletter ever since Doug Nash had to step down, and I have had the great honour of knowing all

 the previous editors. I also want to thank John Polo for ihis idea to make the “Florida Cracker” a confederation wide newsletter.

 The reports come in from Germany, Hawaii, the Great states of Florida, Georgia, Texas, Mississippi, Louisana and a few others

 I cant remember now (don’t forget I am old, that is what I am suppose to do.) With that said thanks for all your help in making this

the #1 read newsletter in the Mechanized Cavalry.

Gentlemen,

Hope everyone is well and survived the Holidays. We are looking forward to seeing everyone at Officers Call.

I will be asking for some help while we are in Tennessee, we are bringing up a davit from a Confederate Blockade Runner

that was sank in Tampa, we will need to carry it from the trailer into the museum for permanent display.

I want to Thank AOT Commander Jason Boshers for his help in making this all come together.

IN LOVING MEMORY:

Men of the Cavalry,

See below from Captain Harris of Georgia referring to the untimely passing of a Brother.

 Please lower all flags to half staff from now until one day after his service details of which I will pass on as I learn them.

I regret that I must inform you of the passing of our friend and brother Roger “Wayback” Reynolds last night.

Sudden and unexpected. We, 3-B, are all in a state of shock and disbelief this day. This one hurts.

It will be impossible to replace him. I’ve already ordered flags within 3-B to be lowered in his honor.

If you could issue the same order nationally, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
