The birthday anniversary of Gens. Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson was in late January, and a birthday banquet celebration was held recently in their honor by the 11th annual event for the General Richard H Anderson Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp #47 of Beaufort. The Lee-Jackson banquet was also the setting for the change of command of camp #47. The new officers and staff are, from left, chaplain, Gerald Wynn; historian, Chris Clayton; military awards, John Simpson; commander, Mike Kelley; revenue programs, Col. Pat Garrett; and adjutant, Paul Griffin. Photo by Jody Henson.
