The 14th Brigade ( William Henry Harris Camp 1395 - Ft. Laud, George W. Perry Camp 471 -Miami, and James Patton Anderson Camp 1599 -WPB) had a fine Christmas get-together in Hollywood, Florida this past Saturday, December 13, 2025.

An endorsement proposal was made by Adj. Johnston (1599) which was heartily approved:

Whereas:

The 14th Brigade fully endorses Roy Hudson for the position of Lt. CIC due to his strong leadership, commitment and dedication to the SCV both on the National and State level.

"It has been my honor and privilege to know and work with Army of Tennessee Councilman Roy Hudson.  I know Roy to be an honorable man, a loyal compatriot, and a staunch defender of our shared Southern Heritage.  Councilman Hudson has made the decision to run for the posistion of the Lt. Commander-in-Chief, Sons of Confederate Veterans.  I fully endorse CompatriotHudson and will support him to the fullest in his campaign.  I pray that you will look favorably on Roy, and will join me in endorsing Roy Hudson for Lt. Commander-in-Chief, Sons of Confederate Veterans."

• Commander Mark R. Bess

As the Kentucky Division Bluegrass Brigade Commander,  I support and endorse Roy Hudson for Lt. Commander-in-Chief.  Roy has been very supportive of the Kentucky Division and the Bluegrass Brigade throughout his term as AOT Councilman. Roy is a man who is easy to access, easy to talk to, gives it as it is in truth. He has traveled to Kentucky on multiple occasions and is willing to meet face-to-face in person. He will be excellent as the next Lt. Commander-in-chief.
