This year marks the 150th anniversary of Sherman's March to the Sea during the civil war. We went back to Fort McAlister last weekend to watch an elaborate reenactment of the "reduction" of the fort by the Yankees. The entire performance only lasted about 20 minutes but apparently the actors stay in character all weekend. Here is a short video of the Union soldiers advancing on the fort.
A blurry shot of musket fire.
The storming of the earthworks!
