Gentlemen,
I am sorry for the delay in sending this out, but with Joni's mom passing away right before this event we were somewhat overwhelmed when we returned home.  

First let me say that I am very honored to have had such a first rate group of folks with us at Conner Prairie.  I am as proud as I can be of each and everyone of you.  You did a fantastic job of honoring those men who wore the blue.  I have heard nothing but good things about the Blues and those who served with us at Conner Prairie.  We certainly did an outstanding job at that event and t hings are coming together very well for us - we seem to be growing nicely.  I just wanted to express to each and everyone of you what a pleasure it was to command such a fine group of individuals.  

We finally finished editing all the photos and getting through them all.  We should have those on the website by next week with the AARs of the event posted there as well.  

We did very well with the raiton program and was able to provide everyone with additional and exceptional rations.  The event provided some rations, but the Blues ate very well with the hard tack and fresh pork.  We were also able to donate a small amount back to Conner Prairie for their preservation and interpetation  efforts.

This was a GREAT first event for the Western Federal Blues.  Please be on the look out for information about Perryville which will be coming out very soon.

Thank you again for making this such a great experience and doing the boys in blue a great honor.
Your Pard,
Chad Greene
