LT COMMANDER REPORT
Members, Saturday the 20th of September was a fine day weather wise and for the Maryland SCV. We attended the Trimble event at the Howard County Courthouse with 15 members riding their iron-horses, two passengers and one prospective camp member in his cage. We arrived a tad late, but they say the cavalry has always made its mark in history as being late, so we carry on the tradition today. And as always in their splendor the Maryland Color Guard gleamed in the midmorning sun as the flags of the Confederacy waved gallantly in the breeze. We were thanked by Compatriot Terry Klima for our attending this event during his acknowledgments of those who did attend. After placing flowers at the base of the monument and Taps being played, the Mechanized Cavalry camp members headed back to Danny Adam's house for some grub.
We had approximately 30 or so members and guests at Danny's to partake of food and share in some Southern hospitality. To my amazement our Chaplain had attended the event and actually showed to our feast, but then of course he only lives down the road a piece.
Thanks to Danny and Debbie for opening their home to us and Debbie for all the fine homemade vittals! I would also like to personally thank those who attended the event and our meeting, those in attendance was:
Dan Adams/ Debbie Hylton/ Amanda Arbaugh
Rick Smith
Lee Cox

Carl Berenholtz
Vanessa Knight
Sheila McDowell
James Shaffer, Jr.
Dave Demisch

Sorry if I missed anyone and I know I did, these names were taken from the sign in sheet, again THANKS to all for attending!!
Our next event is the TURKEY SHOOT, Saturday Oct 4th, being held down at Grotto's place in Southern Maryland. Anyone not knowing what he can do to help before and during the event should contact one of the camp officers to receive an assignment for that day. This will be a big event for the camp and all hands are expected to attend and pitch in. Make sure to bring yer scatter gun, so for those who do want to shoot and don't have a gun, you can borrow one.
The Camp meeting for Nov will be held on the 15th at noon time, hosted by Lee Cox. Lee has invited everyone to meet at his place of business. So mark yer calendars.
Compatriot Eric Smith, my brother and one of our newest camp members is home safe with his family in Taneytown, Maryland after his military tour overseas in the "Sand".
Looking forward to seeing ALL camp members at the TURKEY SHOOT and remember to tell yer friends, family and bring guests.
With Confederate Regards
Lt Commander Rick Smith
ADJUTANT PARAGRAPH:
Suggestions for Group Riding:
Dangerous Riding: (reprint from Sept. 2008 Dixie Biker)
Hey Dixie Biker:
I saw a couple of bikes riding close behind a tractor-trailer today and felt obligated to write. I drove over-the-road for 10 years and have seen a lot of crazy stuff happen. I had another truck pass me one day, and just as he came back into my lane he blew a trailer tire. Truck tires almost always blow, and the outer casing comes completely off in a large strip of rubber and steel belting flying wildly down the road. This tire casing flew up and hit my windshield hard enough to break the glass.
Every time I get behind a big truck or see someone else riding behind one, I remember that day. The break in the wind you get from riding behind a semi is not worth a tire blowing up. I try to never ride behind a truck unless it can not be avoided and when I am forced to, I leave as much room between me and the truck as possible so I have time to react. Those tire casings could break you neck or even take your head off.
RIDE SAFE! Tom A., Jacksonville
FIREARMS REFRESHER:
1. If guns cause crime, then matches cause arson.
2. When you remove the people’s right to bear arms, you create slaves.
3. The American Revolution would never have happened with gun control.

FUNNY BONE
A biker from the Mechanized Cavalry is putt’n thru the historic district of New Market, when outside of an antique shop he spots a highly detailed, very unique, brass sculpture of a rat. The biker is so impressed he asks the shop owner for the price.
“It’s $50.00 for the rat and $1,500.00 for the story that goes with it,” says the owner.
The biker replies, “I’ll take the rat but you can keep the story old man.”
The biker leaves the store with the brass rat under his arm and as he mounts his iron horse, two live rats run out of a storm drain and begin to follow him. By the time he has gone a mile, a hundred rats are right behind him. He cracks the throttle as thousands of rats swarm from the storm drains, basements and vacant lots. When he sees the Monocacy River at the bottom of the hill, he gives his iron horse all the throttle it has.
He reaches the edge of the river and jumps up and grabs a tree limb with one hand and pitches the brass rat into the river. Pulling his legs up and holding on to the tree, he watches his bike and all the rats go into the river and drown.
In amazement he walks all the way back to the antique shop. “You’ve come back for the story?” asks the owner. “No,” says the biker, “I want to know if you have a brass Yankee?”

The Finger
A carpenter calls his wife from a hospital emergency room to tell her that he just cut off a finger at work.
“Oh my God,” she screams. “Not the whole finger?”
“No. The one next to it,” says the guy.
