Dispatches from the front

SgtMaj. Doddsy Carries the Day

Let it be told in every tavern from Boston to Charleston: the Continental Line was not idle this week. We sent 532 of the enemy home early, and did it in good order.

No one did more than SgtMaj. Doddsy of the Grenadiers, who took 187 by his own hand. Those who stood beside him say his musket never had a chance to cool.

Hats off as well to S-Sgt. STAR WARS (152), CSM. Mikey Edmund Websgerald (73), and Col. Bolting (36), who each did their duty and then some.

The tracker saw our colours on 6 fields this week, including 7.Fuss | Event 1, 1DR Linebattle, and NACE | Event 1.
