            On Wednesday, April 20, 2011 at 7:30 PM the SDCWRT will hold its 296th meeting at Palisades Presbyterian Church, at 6301 Birchwood St., San Diego, CA 92120. 

            This month’s speaker will be one of our own members. Josh Weiselberg’s program will be “The Western Theater: Mill Springs and Shiloh.” Josh will introduce the Union and Confederate commanders that played a role in the Western conflict. He will discuss Shiloh and its significance in the strategy in the west, and its effect on later engagements out there, including Mill Springs as a focal point.Battle of Shiloh 2

            Josh will supply an overview of the future of the Western Theater of the War and how Crittenden, McCullough, Van Dorn, Grant, Curtis, as well as Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis responded after these events. Sounds as if it is going to be a very interesting program so come one and all.
