June 7, 1861

One of our FO's(forward observers) has spotted Union infantry, what looks to be several hundred or more infantry. By tomorrow, they will be right on us. More will be coming

Our reinforcements have not arrived yet. We're gonna have a tough time holding this town against that many, but we must hold it. And we WILL.

I've ordered the men to use whatever's available to set up barracades to make them slow down. I've been producing nitroglycerine and other explosives to slow their advance as well as working a reloading press I brought with me to load up some more ammo for my rifle. My SMG is, for some reason, unable to chamber the Confederate ammo(I think it's because of a change in the taper of the case), so I've exchanged it for a C-2. I've noticed that the men are altering their weapons to suit them. Perhaps when we get a reprieve I might work on a C-2A1 and a new LMG design to replace the modified rifles we have been using.

The white house is being sandbagged and cannon are being entrenched around it. Each cannon is supported by a LMG to cover the crew

Once again, just as it was before the strike, the tension in the air is palpable.
