  • We went there on our honeymoon! Charleston and Savannah.

  • I went there and it ruled!

  • iv been here and its great

  • thomas Sumter is one of my ancestors, my last name is Sumpter, but he took the p out of it, the family eventually changed it back

  • Also, it was Battery Wagner, not Fort Wagner. Fort Wagner is located quite a long distance inland. Overall, a very enjoyable video though.
