Republic of Texas Army Promotions and Award Ceremony

On June 16, under a deep blue summer sky, government officials and military commanders of Antiquity Texas, visiting dignitaries, and family members gathered at the Presidio la Bahia in Antiquity Tejas for an official ceremony to bestow honors and promotions on its most recent military heroes.   The awards ceremony was most impressive and many a lacey handkerchief dabbed at moist eyes as the name of a loved one was read out and his or her exploits proclaimed.

Our gallant solders stood straight and proud, resplendent in their handsome blue dress uniforms, mirror-bright boots and silvery swords, as the declarations were read out by Jacon Cortes, General of the Antiquity Texas Military, presented on behalf of the President of Antiquity and the Duques de Bexar.   Seven of the awardees were instrumental in the success of the recent battle at Jabberwock.  They comported themselves with great courage and dignity in the face of stiff opposition from the dastardly pirates who attacked their fleet.

Please join us in congratulating these brave men and woman of the Army of the Republic of Texas.
