I took this post off the Reenactor Forum. The guy in question is in my home unit.

Looking for a Ride to the McDowell Event

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One of my pards needs a ride to the McDowell Event. He and I were supposed to travel together but I have to back out because of work.

He lives in the Philadelphia area (Bensalem) and can leave on Friday morning.

Please RSVP to ronald.lauser@unisys.com if you can help.

Thanks

Tell him to go to the nearest enlistment center. join a Federal unit. They'll put him on a train to Camp Curtin. From there he can ask to transfer to a unit that's headed for McDowell. Then the Federal army would put him on a train for Baltimore then to Washington City and then maybe on one headed twords western Virginia. He may have to walk a piece though. I hear there's mostly Unionists in Western Virginia so, he should be OK.

That's mostly OK but in the CW there weren't no transfers. Lots of trains and walkin' though.

A gutta percha sack coat and forage cap wouldn't keep you dry If I'm attending an event.

Did this feller find a ride?  If not, he might be able to hitch up with me. I live just minutes off I-95, north of Baltimore.
Email me at cjkibler@comcast.net ASAP to let me know.
