. 4000 shells at the fort. one of the vessels on the fleet was a floating tank. big iron turret, 15 inch guns onboard. and that the vessel was able to get within 800 yards of the fort shells into the earthworks where we are standing right now. grant sent reinforcements. they were transferred across the cape fear river. approach the for two miles to the north from smithville where they made their landing and got within 600 yards of the fort. the ground between the fort for 600 yards had been cleared up for a field of fire, and what they discovered when they got there, this was a very strong fort. attacking a head-on would be almost murderous. like the attack by the 54th massachusetts on battery wagner in charleston in 1863. they debated whether or not to attack it straight on, even when the protection of the navy, an african-american showed up in their camp and said, i know a way around the pond and ft. anderson. he guided them. he guided the union forces, two brigades, around the fort from the west around the p

in the top of the fort and declares that the united states navy has captured fort anderson. it is the only incident in the civil war where the united states navy captured a confederate fort from the united states army. 22,ington fell on february 1865, two days after fort anderson was evacuated, wilmington fell. then robert e. lee surrendered his forces. he was no longer able to maintain his army as predicted. he was forced to abandon petersburg and retreated westward, was run down and forced to surrender by grant's forces on april 9. that was only about six weeks after the fall of wilmington. most historians focus their or inion on virginia terms of the seaport, on charleston. but wilmington played an incredibly important role during the war. not many people know about for anderson. if they hear about the fort's guarding wilmington during the civil war, they hear about fort fisher, and understandably so. the site of the largest naval bombardment, largest amphibian until d-day world war ii, but we have this great earthen fort that is very very important in guarding the city t

the weakness of fort anderson like the weakness of fort fisher was it was a two-sided fort. so union forces on the fourth side of the fort, they could attack it more easily. with less opposition. and union soldiers who were captured and some deserters informed the general that the command of the garrison here would happen so they decided to evacuate the fort and retreat towards wellington. so in the early hours of february 19, they packed up their belongings and abandoned the fort and fort wilmington. the united states army overran the fort about donna february 19. they'd heard the alarm south of there, had heard the sounds of evacuation in the early hours of february 19. as soon as the sun started to come up, they fired a volley , charged the fort, stored over the walls of the fort in time to capture 40 or 50 of the confederate rearguard who were protecting the rear of the main army in wilmington. they also found the confederate flag flying on the ground of the fort but union forces by sunrise had captured and occupied for anderson. well, the united states navy didn't know

with drew them to fort anderson. that's when the most soldiers were in fort anderson during the war. there were about 2300 confederate soldiers, about 4500 confederate across the river, a division of troops that have been sent by generally dutchman general lead to make sure wilmington remained in confederate hands but it had to be safeguarded. remember it wilmington fell, he could not maintain his army. so you've got troops over here, you've got troops directly across the river, but general grant wants to capture not just fort fisher and close the harbor to blockade running, he needs to capture wilmington. y.? well, at the time that the federals were being defeated at fort fisher in the first attack at christmas 1864, the federals gained an important victory 300 miles to the south. general shermans army captured savannah after capturing, occupying and destroying atlanta in the fall of 1864, general sherman marched his 60,000 man army the entire breadth of the state and captured savannah on december 21. he presented t
