Bump -

At tonights DA event as of 7/15/2016. We're still on a mild intermission from events, Currently recruiting and trying to build a bigger regiment, As such our attendance hasn't been the best. However.

https://steamcommunity.com/groups/CoB2ndUSSS <- This group attended the DA event under our tags, and a majority of them were temp banned for blatent racisim, Etc. If you see them around and their tags do not resemble 2ndUSSS_rank_Name , Then it's likely not us, Our members do not troll on a whim in servers, We pick through and get only those we trust to wear the tags before allowing them to do so,

Bump- Recruitment is slow, Dealing with another group trying to use our name, Sorry for the slow return gents, Hope to be up and running in a month or so depending on how things pan out,

Topics Of Intrest For Any Reading

* False / Persons Attempting to claim the army- https://steamcommunity.com/groups/TheAoP
 This steam group and all within it are False claim to this army, and as such have no right to use this name nor any of the brigades claimed within

* The AoP Will be restructured as a single brigade starting off this time, As to make it easier on the lads and the command staff as a whole.

* The End-game goal with the army this time around is to maintain a friendly place of non conflicting issue, The possibility of events once more being hosted is entirely on the table, However with that said i'd very much so like to clear this up with Chamberlain, Formerly Brig-gen of iron brigade In the AoP and his attempt to claim the name in somewhat of a spiteful, Uncooperative manner.

*Anyone with questions, Issues, Or otherwise important concerns can Get ahold of me via my steam, Or the forums here. Or on the teamspeak i shall be setting up above, Within reason to that i would like invite all of you in a sense of friendship to come and be part of our events once they've returned

*And finally, If anyone wish's to join our army, as either their own brigade *If you have the numbers* Or Simply as a regiment as a whole, But on that note i'm going to sign off on this post and get back to work on the teamspeak and the recruitment drive. Hope to see you boys on the field!

I have played as the 2nd USSS i joined upon its formation, I was a 1st Lt and grew to AoP LtGen, This thread wasn't made in general of just claiming it, It was made to protect our name far back when we were in Hairys UA, Besides that theres a principle matter behind the fact but it's since been resolved,  However with all that aside the matter was resolved after talking to hairy and some staff of the DA so there shouldn't be any more issues involving this

**Edit,** This thread was made back when i was a 1st LT within the sharps as 2ndUSSS_1stLt_Sanborne if anyone ask's back within DA events that can be confirmed, But the name itself was claimed by me during that phase since we had no post at the time, So the claim is valid as well as the fact that They'd just tried to take the name a day prior after switching from the 4th Tx in the DA, either way it's resolved and i'd like it to stay resolved to avoid future drama,

-I'd also like to add that The name was inactive due to my inability to recruit due to work and family emergencies recently, And due to that clearing up i'm able to get it back into the swing of things, but that in no way means that they should get the name just because i was to busy to attend events for a month, Nobody can control their life or what occurs on the spur of the moment at times and due to that it's taken time to adjust,

Bump currently being revived, BE aware dipington asked to use the name and was told no, Has since blocked me and stolen the name, That aside, Roster under re-work and recruitment is back in full swing.

** IF YOU ARE A DA EVENT OR COMMAND STAFF MEMBER, Please do not let them sign up using the name 2nd USSS, Dipington blocked me to hide the fact he was trying to steal the name, If this persists further action will be taken, Besides that i hope to see alot of you in events~**

P.S If he claims he was given permission by Former colonel Gameboy, Or Former 2nd LT Steven, They have no right to give the name away as they're not within the regiment anymore.

While our layout is somewhat similar we decided against sharps,arty,line, and Cav ranks being seperate  and have one solid structure to our rank.

-Edit-
 Also, forgot to note that our event rules are slightly more scaled for smaller regiments as well. so as long as you're 3 - 4 strong you can get pretty much any specialty you'd like which we'd hoped might be more fair for everyone involved in future events with the army

History Of The Army

The Army of the Potomac was the primary Union fighting force in the Eastern Theater of the American Civil War (1861–1865). Known as "Mr. Lincoln's Army" for its close association with the sitting United States president, its dual mission was to defeat the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia and to safeguard Washington, D.C. Formed in the aftermath of the debacle at First Manassas (1861), the army survived a succession of flawed commanders and battlefield reverses to attain final victory. In the spring of 1862, during the mismanaged Peninsula Campaign, the Army of the Potomac failed to capture the Confederate capital at Richmond. That summer some of its components met defeat in the Second Manassas Campaign. Although it blunted Robert E. Lee's September 1862 invasion of Maryland, it gained only a tactical draw against the smaller but superbly led Confederate army. Three months later the army suffered horrific losses at Fredericksburg, and the following May it was routed by Lee at Chancellorsville. In July 1863, however, it gained a critical victory at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, ending Lee's second invasion of the North. Beginning early in May 1864, the army methodically advanced against Richmond and equally strategic Petersburg, suffering heavy losses at every turn. Compelled to besiege both cities, the Army of the Potomac eventually forced their evacuation and Lee's retreat. As a result, on April 9, 1865, realizing that he had been overtaken, Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox, effectively ending the war.
