Bremen in Southern Victory
Lieutenant General George Armstong Custer made his headquarters at Bremen during part of the 1915 campaign. During lulls in the fighting, he entertained himself by laying the housekeeper Olivia. His adjutant Major Abner Dowling was relieved when news came that Mrs. Custer had received permission to travel to the war zone, forcing the General to relinquish this vice, at least temporarily.
