Outstanding production! Thank you to all who lovingly toiled in this recovery. I'm a sentimental old fool and came to tears as many of the artifacts came to the surface for the first time since '64 (1864). I'm a retired Park Ranger and living historian taking the story of the Civil War to reeanctments and schools throughout Central California. I wear both grey and blue uniforms. A local high school Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Command is getting back up and running with 150 Cadets as of last Monday. They are requesting all manner of new programming and I promised them a series of presentations about the US and CS Navies and Marines. This video is safely stored in my computer for the development of my new program. Thank you all, again.

Everyone that worked on recovering what they can did an amazing job. It was sad to see the pieces being places back into the river, but also I fully understand why. It was amazing what they built back then, I knew about the Civil War, I didn't grow up in America, but never knew they had war ships, Ironclads. It blow my mind when I first heard about it.

27:11 --> 28:59 what a decade has done to a person

I have a place on the Neuse River in Seven Springs NC. It was called Whitehall during the Civil War. The Ironclad “Neuse” was built right at the bridge here and was at the center of a battle here in December 1862. The hull is on display in Kinston NC where it was dug out of the mud in the 60’s. Great museum there and you can go in a full size replica there also.

I was Dive Officer and Senior Diver for the Corps of Engineers during the early 80s conducting what was then exploratory dive investigations on the wreck. Sometimes the hull would be full of sediment and at other times the hull would be open. I dove in the hull back and forth across and went down looking for the engine when the hull was clear of sediment, on a rare occasion. I believe sediment deposition was related to the tide gate operation but couldn’t say for sure. On one dive we found the first shell and cannonball located a short distance from the wreck. When we brought up the first shell we didn’t know if it was still water tight and intact. We removed the fuse noting that the cap was long gone and the powder was wet. There was a plunger that would ignite a cap of fulminate of mercury in a brass fuse. That’s not to say the shell was inert as we later found out in a less publicized incident. When the powder is dried it is still explosive. This story is known by a few and will not be public on my account, but you know who you are. Just one of many stories and fond memories from diving on the CSS Georgia and as mentioned lots of comradery on the Savannah District Dive Team. 19:25

The part about "Clean Sweep" was nice to learn! I am so thankful that even in the "PC" environment that plagues our country today that OUR History is being preserved, examined, studied and displayed. Another unique part of this story was the ability of the Women of Savannah to raise over $100k to fund this ship or rather "Floating Battery". Just like today, we as historians or whatever your call or interest are, have the ability to support Battlefield and Relic restoration and saving of the Hallowed Grounds from all of America's skirmishes, wars and issues. I have and will continue to donate when and where I can, no matter the amount, and not for recognition or a pat on the back but for our future generations of Americans to enjoy, study and hopefully learn from!

Some years ago we raised fro the sea bed the "Mary rose" which was the pride and joy of the English navy in 1545, needles to say the whole of one side has been raised and is conserved in Portsmouth they have managed to stabilise the wood from drying out etc so technology is advancing so I am sure the Georgia could under go the same conservation. it would have been so easy for the port authority just to dredge the whole thing out of the river years ago at a small fraction of the cost of conserving it, so well done for them for not just destroying it.

Bravo!!! This iwas a well made documentary.

Fact is, those men that lived and worked those confederate and union vessels were all Americans, every one of them and thier lives, weather north or south, should be honored that way. It was a painful period, that pitted brother against brother, son against father and no American at that time wanted that heartbreak, but it happened. We cannot erase that history.
