Event Website/Discussion http://www.intextlighting.com/Backwater1865/Welcome.html Event Sponsor: Independence Mess Event Purpose: This will be a Controlled Maneuver Event. The Commanding Officer of each command will have Friday night to issue rations and organize/drill there men. Pre-dawn on Saturday, each commander will receive written orders from this higher command which will require him to maneuver his subordinate commands and accomplish his assigned missions. The Commanders have no prior knowledge pertaining to their march routes, or what their objectives will be. Nor will they know where their opposition is starting from, or what his objectives are. As the event develops, the event coordinators will provide supplemental orders to the commanders as needed. Event Historical Setting:Following Sherman’s 1864 Christmas Gift of Savannah, Ga. to Pres. Lincoln, his command began to push North through the backwaters of the Carolinas, culminating in the Battle of Bentonville, on March 19, 20, & 21. To counter the Federal movement, Lee summoned Gen Joseph E. Johnston out of his short-lived retirement, to take command of the Army of Tennessee in order to stop Sherman’s movement. At this time the AOT was widely scattered through the Carolinas, and were being pressed not only by Sherman’s advance from the South, but also from movements of the combined forces of Gen. Alfred H. Terry's Provisional Corps and Gen. John Schofield's XXIII Corps .
