Welcome aboard. Hope you can adjust to the closeness of the Antietam battlefield to your new post. And, hope you can include the battle of South Mountain and the Maryland Campaign in your knowledge base, if you have not already. You will have to deal with some very opinionated people at Antietam regarding South Mountain, but suppose you dealt with these types at Gettysburg!
