Quote context

[...]

- No one will ever take Charleston without first silencing the forts which protect its harbour. And the first one that must be taken is that: Fort Wagner.

- Wagner mounts a 10-inch Columbiad, three smoothbore 32-pounders, a 42-pound carronade, a 10-inch coast mortar, and four 12-pound howitzers plus a garrison of about a thousand men.

- As many of you gentlemen may be aware, for the last four days, our Navy has weakened Wagner with a constant barrage.

- Headquarters has determined a time for our attack.

- We will proceed with a direct frontal assault tomorrow at dusk.

- The problem, gentlemen, is the approach.

- The ocean and the marsh leave only a narrow strip of sand. A natural defile through which we can only send one regiment at a time.

- Our best hope is that that leading regiment can keep the Rebs occupied long enough for reinforcements to exploit the breach.

- Needless to say casualties in the leading regiment may be extreme.

- General Strong. The 54th Massachusetts requests the honor of leading the attack on Fort Wagner.

A deep man, he says, believes that the evil eye can wither that the heart's blessing can heal, and that love can overcome all odds.
They must have had to learn this from long hours of meaningless, and inhuman work.
(Civil war cannon fire)
We want them to know, Heavenly Father, that we died for freedom.
But this time we must make it a whole country, for all who live here, so that all can speak.
