Description of Pictures: Civil War at Sea:
U.S. Navy Memorial Hosts Educational Symposium to Highlight the 150th Anniversary of the Commencement of the Civil War:
The United States Navy Memorial is holding a symposium to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the Civil War. The U.S. Naval Institute and the U.S. Naval History &
Heritage Command will co-host the event, highlighting the U.S. Navy’s role in, and contributions to, the outcome of the war. The event will kick off with keynote speaker Craig Symonds, renowned author of award-winning books Lincoln and His Admirals and The Civil War at Sea, and will include historians and authors who can speak about the blockading efforts, riverine warfare, and the major sea battles of the four-year war. In addition, historic memorabilia and artifacts from the war will be on display.
The Civil War is perhaps the most studied war in the history of the United States. This war resulted in two outcomes that directly shaped the face of America as we know it: American slavery was abolished and the unity of our states was re-established, confirmed, and upheld. While the key land battles are taught in schools today, less attention is given to the Navy’s critical role in securing victory for the Union and the major naval technological advances made during that time.

(7) "Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ye: The Civil War Navy in Public Memory" -- Matthew Eng

Why is the naval aspect of the Civil War so largely overlooked? Mr Eng discusses how the Civil War Navy Sesquicentennial hopes to increase public awareness of the importance of the sea services in the war.
Matthew Eng has worked in various capacities in the museum education department at the Hampton Roads Naval Museum since 2006. In 2010, he became Deputy Director of Education at HRNM. He also serves as coordinator for the Civil War Navy Sesquicentennial, an official U.S. Navy Commemoration.
He is a 2006 graduate of James Madison University with a B.A. in History, as well as a M.A. in History from Old Do ...More...

2. CWASS5_110423_125.JPG: "Nor must Uncle Sam's web-feet be forgotten. At all the watery margins they have been present. Not only on the deep sea, the broad bay, and the rapid river, but also up the narrow muddy bayou, and wherever the ground was a little damp. Thanks to all. For the great republic -- for the principle it lives by, and keeps alive -- for man's vast future -- thanks to all," -- Abraham Lincoln, 1865
3. CWASS5_110423_127.JPG: "Our little navy accomplished so much. Our navy alone kept that of the US from reaching Richmond by the James River, and from reaching Savannah, and Charleston; and yet not ten men in ten thousand of the country know or appreciate these facts." -- Stephen R Mallory, 1867

2011 photos: Trips this year: Civil War Trust conferences (Savannah, GA, Chattanooga, TN), New Jersey over Memorial Day for my birthday (people never seem to visit New Jersey -- it's always just a pit stop on the way to New York. I thought I might as well spend a few days there. Despite some nice places, it still ended up a pit stop for me -- New York City was infinitely more interesting), my 6th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Francisco). Ego strokes: Author photos that I took were used on two book jackets this year: Jason Emerson's book "The Dark Days of Abraham Lincoln's Widow As Revealed by Her Own Letters" and Dennis L. Noble's "The U.S. Coast Guard's War on Human Smuggling." I also had a photo of Jason Stelter published in the Washington Examiner and a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. Equipment this year: I mostly used the Fuji S100fs camera as well as two Nikon models -- the D90 and the new D7000. Mostly a toy, I also purchased a Fuji Real 3-D W3 camera, to try out 3-D photographs. I found it interesting although I don't see any real use for 3-D stills now. Given that many of the photos from the 1860s were in 3-D (including some of the more famous Civil War shots), it's odd to see it coming back. Number of photos taken this year: just over 390,000.
