I believe it has a flaw and that is that the 54th attacks with the ocean on its left. My understanding is that Union forces assaulted Ft. Wagner from a southerly direction thus placing the ocean on their right.

I believe you're right. Here's a link to a contemporary Harper's Weekly article about the battle. The link to page #509 takes you to a woodcut picture of the battle that shows the attack coming from the South. Battle of Fort Wagner. There's also a map.

Thank you very much for the information. Neat website too which is now bookmarked.

Take care!
