Today in 1862, the steam-powered, iron-fortified warships the Union's #USSMonitor & the Confederate's #CSSVirginia fought each other for hours off Hampton Roads, VA. The first battle between iron-fortified battleships ended in a draw, and made obsolete many of the world's navies.

Today in 1862-during the #CivilWar-two ironclads, the #USSMonitor & the #CSSVirginia, fought to a draw off Hampton Roads, Virginia. The ships pounded each other all morning but their armor plates easily deflected the cannon shots, signaling a new era of steam-powered iron ships.

Watched the film Sahara, last night, the one where Dirk Pitt searches out a lost Civil War ship full of gold! Think this would be ace as an adventure for Pulp Alley. What would your game of choice and scenario be?

@pptsapper @StinkenderKase Theoretically possible but given thickness of metal plating I would be surprised. Pulmonary trauma shows up easier than #TBI for people not wearing body armor, so if there were no reports of lung trauma then likely no TBI
#CivilWar pics from testing plating for the #CSSVirginia!
#shipsinpics #ships #shipping #shipspotting #maritime – ex-#USSMerrimack (#CSSVirginia) at perhaps 1:15 scale (???). This is maybe a 15' model IIRC. But I could be way off.
#shipsinpics #ships #shipping #shipspotting #maritime – US Civil War Naval Museum features a superb collection of artwork, scale models including several renditions of the #USSMonitor and ex-#USSMerrimack (#CSSVirginia). The largest pair are perhaps 1:10 scale (???).
El 10 de Mayo de 1862, ante la cercanía de fuerzas enemigas, las tropas confederadas destruyen el arsenal naval de Norfolk (Virginia). El acorazado #CSSVirginia (o #CSSMerrimack) es hundido para evitar su captura.

Today in 1862-during the #CivilWar- the #USSMonitor sank in a storm off Cape Hatteras, NC. Just nine months earlier, the ship had been part of a revolution in naval warfare when the ironclad dueled to a standstill with the rebel ironclad #CSSVirginia off Hampton Roads, Virginia.

I wonder if anyone remembers these bubblegum cards from the 1960s? They're what first got me interested in the American Civil War. @Battlefields #USSMonitor #CSSVirginia
