Hi from Cincinnati, again lol

[union85]

Hi, Im not too new here I had a membership here but I lost the password and username, so long story short I am really glad to be back here. I have currently read THE SWORD OF LINCOLN and am almost finished with GENERAL LEE'S ARMY (excellent book about the Army of Northern Virginia). I also want to add that I am a new guy to the civil war community. My uncle worked at Antietam National Battlefield for some time and I have had many tours of the battlefield. (what an eyeopening experience). In addition to much reading on the civil war I also collect die-cast soldiers and I have just started to collect Civil War Items.

Thanks guys so much for giving me the chance to participate in this great experience.

Thanks again
Peter

Fresh fish! A young 'un too. How can I tell? You mentioned die cast soldiers. Only two type of people have time for die cast soldiers. The young and the middle age plus. The young because they've got time. the middle age plus are those guys whose interest in you-name-the-hobby waned upon dating age and early marriage. By the time they're middle aged, they return to their first love. Us old timers recognize that pattern.

Anyhow, welcome to this board.

Timewalker - me too. I have hundreds of 1/1200 scale ships and plenty of micro armor. I'm still a kid at heart.
