i'm sort of imagining the monitor like one of those fire boats in new york harbor with water spraying out everywhere, only in this case it's either naptha or water. if we can get water to go down the merrimac's smokestacks, 10 gallons will basically blow out the furnace doors, scalding everyone within reach, and no doubt the confederate would surrender in a great hurry. but there was also, then, the fear that what was good for the rebel goose might also be applied to the union gander. and there were fears that this exact same tactic could be used against the monitor. people write in with all different strategems about how to go about destroying the merrimac. some offer basic ideas that navy officers, of course, had already thought of. some say, well, let's use a giant net, as if the merrimac is some sort of large guppy, that it can be scooped up with these tugs and you would grab the merrimac that way. also, to use, again, sort of a chain lasso that you fire this grappling hook over the merrimac and capture it that way. you have two individuals, edward post, to latch onto the merrimac

and they sent sailors and soldiers something like 60,000 men to new york harbor. their purpose was to capture new york and then to begin to recover the colonies one by one. and they were commanded by two brothers, william howell and robert howell. william howell commanded the navy. and it was the largest projection of sea board power over a longer distance than any other than in the modern period. it was also the largest force that britain put into the field during the entire span of the war, which lasted longer than the civil war combined. eight years. washington's job under orders from the continental congress was to defend new york city, which he really felt to be indefensible, particularly as the british commanded the sea. what followed was a total disaster for american arms. absolutely everything went wrong. one thing that went wrong was the health of the army. there was no camp discipline. in the civil war for every soldier killed at battle, one died of disease. in world war i, it was about one to one. in the american revolution, the ratio was 8 to 1. 8 death

the fear is that the merrimac will be showing up the next day at new york harbor, baltimore or philadelphia and that these cities will be razed or laid under contribution. one of the easiest ways some people write in on is saying, we need to lock the merrimac in the elizabeth river. lock her in or lock her out. to use submerged hulks, stone boats, barges to prevent the ship from leaving its harbor and launching another attack on the u.s. navy in hampton roads. this idea also is applied to the potomac, the fear that the merrimac is going to come up to the potomac and shell the capital is palpable. so the solution was to send ships to kettle bottom shoals, just below washington's rather treacherous stretch of river and to sink ships there, two frig ets if necessary. if the merrimac destroyed two of the navy's best ships, why not sink them in the potomac and block the merrimac from getting up to the washington so she doesn't have to destroy them. we will do it for her. also, the suggestion is, very much a strat gem, why don't we have a fake confederate ship run the block aid. have a ship come
