Going, going...

.
To my fellow Delaware Blues members:
I've invited all of you to participate as authors on this blog.
Multiple times.
Anyone who does not respond by the end of the year gets cut off.
Email me if you're confused.

Photos, please

.
Both to appear on this blog and to use as a "Civil War for the Day" photo on my own blog, I'd love to get photos from the Blues of any Civil War event, whether Blues-attended or not.
Don't send me any of your 8-megabyte digital gems, either, but stomp them into pngs or jpegs of no more than a couple of hundred kilobytes and email them to me at:

mseymour@proofmark.com

A description of who, where, what, and when would be appreciated.
Thanks.

At least it wasn't raining...

.
The Blues march on Remembrance Day.
.

The Blues at the National

.
In the rain, of course. Would it be a National without it?
.

Group hug?

.
Anyone in the Blues interested in jointly investing in a major semi-automated loading machine? I will, of course, bow to Mister Barker for advice on the right one to get, but I have to believe there's a high-speed machine out there that could load our stuff, especially for those of us with Civil War-era cartridge firearms (but also the muzzle-stuffer cases) faster than we each can on our own.
In the least, there's gotta be an automated casting device available to churn out some serious piles of bullets.
Any takers? Email Rico if you're interested.

And that's why they call it the Blues

.

(With apologies to Elton John.)

The Regimental Histories button on our website (www.delawareblues.info) will let you read the complete histories of each of the nine regiments of the First Delaware Infantry, including their command structure, service history, and significant battles (of which there were many).
.

Reporting for duty

.
The Delaware Blues website, http://delawareblues.info, is up and running.
You can always send emails regarding the site, the Delaware Blues, or other pertinent N-SSA issues to the Delaware Blues webmaster here or to the unit adjutant here.

We will also be posting photos and information, as appropriate, on this blog.
Check both places periodically to see what the Blues are up to.
Thanks for your support.
