Support Carpenter's Battery Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 1927 Serving Alleghany County, Covington , Clifton Forge & Iron Gate It is the goal of Carpenter's Battery, SCV Camp 1927, to preserve the history and heritage of all Confederate Americans. Our forefathers risked everything to defend the Confederate States of America against an invading army that was better equipped, armed and fed. They often fought without proper clothing and with little food. They left their wives and children to fight for the same objective that soldiers in the revolutionary war fought. Freedom from an overbearing, over taxing Federal Government. These men fought with honor and integrity and we believe that it is our duty to represent them and our Confederate Heritage in such a way that all people of Confederate descent will once again feel an overwhelming pride in their ancestry. ************************************************************************ Carpenter's Battery Camp 1927 Article II of our by-laws Article II - Object To associate in one united compact body of men of Confederate ancestry, and to cultivate, perpetuate and sanctify the ties of fraternity and friendship entailed thereby; to aid and encourage the history and achievement of our ancestors during the War for Southern Independence and to ensure that their heroic contributions and sacrifices are accurately recorded and preserved for posterity; to aid and assist in the erection of suitable and enduring monuments and memorials to all Southern valor, civil and military, wherever done and wherever found; to instill in our descendants a devotion to and reverence for the principles represented by the Confederate States of America, to the honor, glory and memory of our fathers who fought in that cause; to become knowledgeable in the true history of this war and to ensure that the truth is told and that the falsehoods perpetuated against the Confederate States of America and her People are counteracted at every opportunity; to be productive members of our society and to aid and assist those less fortunate and whenever possible to be active in the betterment of our community. ************************************************************************ Since it's inception the men of Carpenter's Battery have been active in community projects and helping those in need.
