I was looking through some newspaper archives online and found a news dispatch from Gettysburg taken during the fighting for Culps hill on July 3rd before Pickett's charge. Read the whole thing and im sure you'll get a chuckle out of Longstreet's "death" and the epic last sentence ;)

Hi, I was wondering if you guys were planning to release CWBR for downloadable purchase as you did with TC2M. I've never played CWBR before and its almost impossible to find a copy

Hey Armisted.

I see from this post that you are around. But have not responded to my PM. Thought, like Longstreet, you might have come to a nasty end at Gettysburg.

I was offering you a copy of the TCBR (Take Command Bull Run) CD in original case .... which I thought you wanted. I have a courier going back to UK in mid-September who could arrange postage to wherever.

Come on ! Use it or lose it.

Sears reports the death of Longstreet in his book and how Old Pete had a quiet chuckle at the news of his own demise.
