Gentlemen,

I think it is important both for our personal reputation as a premier Brigade and for the sake of future large scale reenactments that we establish some very minimal uniform guidelines and enforce them at the event.

I realize that not all will be "up to par" with all of the accurate guidelines given for this event, however, all of us can avoid those items that belong on a movie set and not on the battlefield.

For instance, No coon skin hats, no animal skin clothing of any kind, no moccasins, no stetson cowboy hats, no wranglers or gun slinger attire, no dickies, no west german boots ect. Basically the very obvious items that are no where near correct. If you have a question please, please ask. You will not be shamed for doing so!

If you are a new guy and lack something such as shoes, trousers, a good hat ect. Post a message here. We will get you a loaner for the event! No shame there we have all had to do that at some point. BUT, let us not discrace our reputation and be the ones caught on the feild being blatantly "farby" as they say. We don't have to look perfect but we sure don't have to look silly.

YOS,

Gen. Griffin
