Confederate States of America (Occupied)
Dear Ambassador Rose,

It may prove cost effective to buy used cotton sheets from the local thrift shops and then dye them to appropriate color of gray. I would like to suggest using RIT Dye colors Dark Green and Cocoa Brown mixed as shown in the link below (color 361): http://www.ritdye.com/colorit_color_formula_guideAny true confederate, from the lowliest private to the most illustrious general, could easily follow such instructions. We've been making outfits out of sheets for over a century. It was very perceptive of you to understand this and tailor your instructions to take advantage of it.
Heterosexually yours,
Gen. JC Christian, patriot
