Maybe you have a good idea.

Maryland has a history of needing to be occupied to keep it on the straight and narrow. Thousand of Union troops were bivouacked here during the Civil War since it was a slave state full of Southern sympathizers and right on Washington DC's doorstep.

It’s been tried. It all came to grief in a cornfield near Sharpsburg.
