Re: Greek Fire used against Vicksburg

I brought up Greek fire two or three years ago Dennis. I was amazed that General Forrest couldn't spell saddle with two "d's" but knew how to make Greek Fire, something I had never heard of at the time.

Union Ships and shore battery's rained 300 pound Greek Fire bombs on the City of Charleston. One of the big cannon's got so hot firing the Greek Fire exploded killing several on Morris Island I believe.
