Fort Pulaski National Monument - a photo on Flickriver

            Fort Pulaski National Monument is located on Cockspur Island, Georgia.  The fort was completed in 1847 to protect Savannah, Georgia.

During the American Civil War, the Union siege of the Confederate fort began on April 10, 1862.  Using the new James Rifled Cannon and Parrott rifles, Union forces were able to breach the fort's walls within 30 hours.  The bombardment by rifling cannon rendered brick fortifications obsolete.
