Note: The autor thanks everyone for their comments. Uptill this point Confederte toops that took part in the war were from the west Confederacy. It now looked as if the war might turn against Arizona. The Confederate General Staff decided to launch an attack on New York in the east to take the pressur off Arizona. Easteren Confederate states began moveing their forces toward the region arround Covington Kentuckey. This included the famed Army of Northern Verginia, who years before had occupied Washington D. C. that resulted in Confederate independence. New York moved it's forces toward Cinncinati. They mined bridges and sighted machine guns in riverfrount office buildings. A lot of soldiers camped in suberbs arround Cincinnati. They were ready to move in the event of an invasion. Most offices stayed open guns or not. There was no garentee there would be an invasion so why close? Tanks were stationed on Fountan Square. Office workers came down to look at the taks and have their pictures taken with them over lunch hour. Cinncinai police officers were issued rifles and instructed to go to the riverfront in the event of an invasion. Companys sent out memos saying that in the event of shooting employees were excused from work. This was greeted with laugther by most people.Landing craft, rubber rafts and other boats began to appear along the river front.
