0:56Now PlayingExperience the daring world of Civil War blockade running! 🚤💨 Early in the war, it was easy, but as the Union Navy improved, runners adapted with speed and camouflage. They constantly switched ports, conducted fake cargo runs, and painted ships black for night, white for day. They used smokeless anthracite coal to avoid detection and even turpentine-soaked cotton for turbo boosts if spotted! To confuse Union rockets, runners would fire their own in false directions. #BlockadeRunning #CivilWarNavy #MilitaryHistory #HistoryShorts #DavidErnenwein #AmericanCivilWar #UnionBlockade #NavalWarfare #Smuggling #ConfederateNavy #WartimeLogistics #NavalTactics #CivilWarHistory #CoastalDefense #NavalStrategy
