The SCAR braved rain and cold to participate in the 145th Fort McAllister event. Fort McAllister was then end of the "March to the Sea" and was the key to capturing Savannah a few days later. The campaign ended almost one month after the men of "Sherman's Bummers" left Atlanta and their supply trains behind. The SCAR fell in as the 70th Ohio to participate in the assault upon the breastworks of the fort. During the morning and early afternoon the SCAR made much noise for the men in the fort and caused great distress by making movements in their direction. The actual assault took place around 5 PM. We thank the many who made this event possible such as the GA State Parks, Joe Blunt, and Clint Stanley. Please click the "read more" button to see the event images.
