Editor's Note: This memorial for reenactor Scott Mehaffey was included in our pages during the early years of our existence. With subsequent transition from TheWildGeese.com to TheWildGeese.irish, this eulogy was lost, until this month. Prompted by the renewed attention paid to TNT Films' Civil War epic "Gettysburg," we searched for and found this page. Scott appears as a lieutenant in the film alongside actor Sam Elliott. (Scott, we remember you fondly!)
