In 2024\, more than 80 y ears after their mission\, soldiers of the "Ghost Army" received the high est civilian honor of the United States\, the Congressional Gold Medal\, for their clever tactics outwitting the enemy in the most unlikely ways. Their tactics were unconventional\, including inflatable convoys\, sound effects\, fake radio shows\, and misinformation.

\n
From Fort Sumter to Appomattox\, Confederates bought and sold thousands of men\, wo men\, and children through a surviving trade in slaves. Even though the w ar destroyed the cotton economy that had long underpinned American slaver y and fueled the slave trade\, Confederates used slave commerce to shape their experiences of the war\, whether to help them mobilize for the conf lict or to weather the numerous crises it created. Some speculated wildly in human property to ward off inflation or to buy shares in the slavehol ding future for which they fought. Still others traded people to keep the m from achieving the freedom the war offered. For those held in slavery\, meanwhile\, the surviving slave trade dramatically shaped the ways in wh ich they encountered liberty\, yanking many back into bondage while inspi ring others to risk flight. \n

Join us Saturday\, September 14 in front of Friendship Firehouse Museum at 107 South Alfred Street for a muster of over 15 antique\, hand-drawn firefighting apparat us. Participating vehicles will include 19th-century suction fire engines and hose reel carriages. \n
\n
Suction engines\, invented in t he early 19th century\, drew water from wells\, hydrants\, and other sour ces through a hose\, and provided a powerful and constant stream of water . The first hoses were typically made in 50-foot lengths\, and only a few pieces could be carried on the fire engine itself\, so additional vehicl es were created specifically to carry extra lengths of hose. \n
\n
Fire was a constant danger in a town of mostly wooden buildings\ , where open flames provided heat\, light\, and cooking. The Friendship\ , Sun\, Relief\, Hydraulion\, and Star volunteer fire companies served th e community faithfully\, particularly during enormous blazes in 1827\, 18 55\, and 1871. \n
\n
Friendship Firehouse Museum?s historic f irefighting vehicles includes the Prettyman Hose Reel Carriage\, built in Alexandria in 1858 by coachmaker\, and Friendship Fire Company member\, Robert Prettyman. It was ornately decorated and fitted with two large bel ls to sound the alarm as the vehicle bounced through Alexandria?s streets . \n
\n
Thanks to fundraising efforts led by the Friendship Vet erans Fire Engine Association\, the Prettyman hose carriage recently unde rwent much needed conservation\, returning to Friendship Firehouse in 202 2. Additional hose reel carriages and suction engines from throughout the region will be on display outside of the Friendship Firehouse Museum on the 100 block of South Alfred Street. \n
