I have been in contact with Deputy Cuny, Hell on Wheels match director, regarding the color guard for the opening ceremonies. We are going to meet at the main tent at 0700 on Friday and be prepared to present the colors at 0730. It looks like there will be personnel from the Wyoming National Guard as well as ourselves participating. Wretched Excess, who would normally coordinate this activity has recently undergone surgury and is likely on sick call at this time. The match organization will be providing flags and standards. I will bring four white web flag carrying harnesses, and an extra saber and Spencer carbine, if any of our troops are short of necessary equipment. Of course we will all be in uniform and (hopefully) in step for the presentation. Following is the participation information as far as I have been informed...
