We begin our video swing through the Gulf region from Fort Morgan, one of the forts that played a crucial role in the defense of Mobile, AL during the Civil War. It is here that Union Admiral David Farragut famously shouted "Damn the Torpedoes, Full Speed Ahead!" while passing by the fort during the Battle of Mobile Bay.
Join Kris White, Chris Mackowski and Garry Adelman.
This video is part of our tour series through Mobile, AL and New Orleans. All of the videos from the tour can be found here: [ Ссылка ]
