Railroad Map of the Southern US 1862
Every Bridge was vital to the war effort. Richard's first fight in this war was to protect and defend the Railroad Bridge that went over the Tennessee River that was supplying Forts Henry and Fort Donelson. Railroads were vital to supply the forts. Roads were not paved as they are today and in a war you had to move heavy things like artillery and ammunition.
