THE WAR
FOR THE
CONSTITUTION and the UNION

 

TO THE PATRIOTIC PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA
Once again your COUNTRY calls you to Arms!

Your Brethren in Arms appeal to you for INSTANT AID to plant the Stars and Stripes


on the walls of Richmond, where now stands the defiant Standard of Rebellion and Anarchy.
The President of the United States calls upon you to reinforce the National Armies, that the overthrow of this Rebellion, already assured by brilliant Federal Victories on Land and Sea, be more

SPEEDY, FINAL, OVERWHELMING:

Let all the people do their part in the Just, glorious, and triumphant struggle for the Supremacy of Law - The Perpetuity of the Union, the Integrity of the National Territory - the Defense of the Constitution and the Maintenance of that Republican Liberty, which our Fathers gave their blood and treasure.

 

The Union must and shall be preserved

 

This event will earn the ACWS lots of money to continue its programs. This event is on the coast, so it will be cool. There will be many period ships, so this will be a great opportunity to rally to support our club. President Paul de Nubilo is asking for more Union soldiers to come and fight. There will be a large, period correct naval battle, which will be a sight to behold!
