Since Redlegs are known for their creativity, we thought we'd share one of their favorite poems.

>Redlegs
The men who joined the group called themselves the Red Legged Scouts and their stated purpose was to serve as scouts and spies for the Union Army. The Red Legs were never officially mustered into the Union Army and there are no formal unit histories; however, their deeds along the border became notorious among Missourians and notable among Kansans.
The Red Legs were a somewhat secretive organization of about 50 to 100 ardent abolitionists who were hand selected for harsh duties along the border. Membership in the group was fluid and some of the men went on to serve in the 7th Kansas Cavalry or other regular army commands and state militias.

FISAGATE on deck?
>Yea, we should do the exact opposite of what John Bolton says.
Excellent rule of thumb in all situations.
