And the politically correct Sesquicentennial begins…
 
From: wvmule3@aol.com

First the flag, now the uniform. Our enemies are poised to make it a “Confederate-less" celebration. It appears as though any reference to the Confederacy is going to elicit cries of "racist". Take note… instead of the next five years being the greatest celebration of our history in our lifetime, it looks as though we will spend it fighting for our very survival as an organization. We must recruit and strengthen the WV Division to withstand the onslaught.
