2010-03-19 / Community Events
Pre-orders are being taken for a commemorative print of a pivotal fight during the Civil War.
As Brig. Gen. William T. Sherman marched toward Savannah, Ga. in December of 1864, the Signal Corps was there.
Under Sherman’s direction, Capt. James McClintock and wigwag operator Pvt. Samuel Magner provided command and control to Brig. Gen. William B. Hazen as he led the attack on Fort McAllister, Ga.
They cost $175 for 3-year or greater SCRA members and $225 for non-members. Those who sign up for a 3-year membership will be eligible for the discount.
Prints of the work will be sold to cover the cost of commissioning the painting which will hang in the Signal Museum once it has been presented to the Signal Corps.
