For broadcast quality video and audio, photo stills and other media resources, visit the USPS Newsroom. Battles of Mobile Bay, Petersburg, Memorialized on Civil War Forever Stamps Today Fourth of Five-Year Civil War Sesquicentennial Stamps Series Continues MOBILE, AL — Two of the most important events of the Civil War — the Battle of Mobile Bay (AL) and the siege at Petersburg, VA — were memorialized on Forever stamps today at the sites where these conflicts took place. One stamp depicts Admiral David G. Farragut’s fleet at the Battle of Mobile Bay (AL) on Aug. 5, 1864. The other stamp depicts the 22nd U.S. Colored Troops engaged in the June 15-18, 1864, assault on Petersburg, VA, at the beginning of the Petersburg Campaign. “The Civil War was one of the most intense chapters in our history, claiming the lives of more than 620,000 people,” said Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe in dedicating the Mobile Bay stamp. “Today, through events and programs held around the country, we’re helping citizens consider how their lives — and their own American experience — have been shaped by this period of history.” In Petersburg, Chief U.S. Postal Service Inspector Guy Cottrell dedicated the stamps just yards from the location of an underground explosion — that took place150 years ago today — which created a huge depression in the earth and led to the battle being named “Battle of the Crater.” Confederates — enraged by the sight of black soldiers — killed many soldiers trapped in the crater attempting to surrender.

  • Ships Built by the Charlestown Navy Yard
    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Boston National Historical Park Charlestown Navy Yard Ships Built By The Charlestown Navy Yard Prepared by Stephen P. Carlson Division of Cultural Resources Boston National Historical Park 2005 Author’s Note This booklet is a reproduction of an appendix to a historic resource study of the Charlestown Navy Yard, which in turn was a revision of a 1995 supplement to Boston National Historical Park’s information bulletin, The Broadside. That supplement was a condensation of a larger study of the same title prepared by the author in 1992. The information has been derived not only from standard published sources such as the Naval Historical Center’s multi-volume Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships but also from the Records of the Boston Naval Shipyard and the Charlestown Navy Yard Photograph Collection in the archives of Boston National Historical Park. All of the photographs in this publication are official U.S. Navy photographs from the collections of Boston National Historical Park or the Naval Historical Center. Front Cover: One of the most famous ships built by the Charlestown Navy Yard, the screw sloop USS Hartford (IX-13) is seen under full sail in Long Island Sound on August 10, 1905. Because of her role in the Civil War as Adm. David Glasgow Farragut’s flagship, she was routinely exempted from Congressional bans on repairing wooden warships, although she finally succumbed to inattention when she sank at her berth on November 20, 1956, two years short of her 100th birthday.

  • The Legacy of Commodore David Porter: David Farragut—The Civil War Years Part Two of a Three-Part Series
    The Legacy of Commodore David Porter: David Farragut—The Civil War Years Part Two of a three-part series Vice Admiral Jim Sagerholm, USN (Ret.), October 19, 2020 blueandgrayeducation.org David Farragut | National Portrait Gallery When Virginia seceded from the Union in April 1861, David Farragut proclaimed his continuing allegiance to the Stars and Stripes and moved his family to the North. His birth in Tennessee and the residence of his sisters and brother in New Orleans caused some to question his loyalty. But the Secretary of the Navy, Gideon Welles, liked what he saw in Farragut: “He was attached to no clique, . was as modest and truthful as he was self-reliant and brave . and resorted to none of the petty contrivances common to some . ‘ Thus, when looking for an officer to command the capture of New Orleans, Welles chose Farragut, even though Farragut had no experience commanding more than one vessel. The principal defense for New Orleans from threats via the Gulf were Forts Jackson and St. Philip, located some 40 miles south of the city. It was generally believed that wooden-hulled ships would at best be severely damaged if not sunk in trying to run past the formidable artillery of a fort. Farragut was one of the few who thought otherwise. In addition, his foster brother, Commander David Dixon Porter, proposed assembling a squadron of gunboats, each armed with a 13-inch mortar that could hurl a 200-pound shell 3 miles, claiming that they could reduce the forts sufficiently to permit Farragut’s ships to run past them with minimal damage.
