The Battle of Fort Myers in February 1965 was a small engagement known as the southernmost land battle of the Civil War. Author Mark Barie explains how this little fort was a thorn in the side of the Confederates and put at risk its supply of food from the area. The fort was defended by a small , under resourced, unit of African American US Army soldiers. Barie explains this history to host Jim Fausone.
