<div class="smallfont"><strong>"To Hell and Back" Sgt. 54th Mass Ft.Wagner 1863</strong>
</div><div class="smallfont"> </div><div class="smallfont">作者：egonzinc </div><div class="smallfont">“To Hell and Back”<br/>-Survivor of the Attack on Fort Wagner<br/>Sergeant, Company C<br/>54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry <br/>South Carolina, July 18, 1863<br/><br/>This figure was my entry in a recent contest in Italy’s Combat 1a6 forum.<br/><br/>The regiment gained international fame on July 18, 1863, when it spearheaded an assault on Fort Wagner near Charleston, South Carolina. At this battle, Colonel Shaw was killed, along with one-hundred and sixteen of his men. Another hundred and fifty-six were wounded or captured. The total casualties of 272 would be the highest total for the 54th in a single engagement during the war. Although the Union was not able to take and hold the fort, the 54th was widely acclaimed for its valor, and the event helped encourage the further enlistment and mobilization of African-American troops, a key development that President Abraham Lincoln once noted as helping to secure the final victory. <br/></div>
