Joint Expedition Against Franklin (original) (raw)
- The Joint Expedition Against Franklin was a joint engagement between the United States Army and Navy against the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War. The engagement was intended to move Union forces into an area where Confederate forces were gathering as they prepared to move on Suffolk, Virginia. Originally planned as a coordinated two-pronged attack with a naval flotilla supporting an infantry advance on Franklin, Virginia, communications delays caused the Union Navy to start the mission before the Army was ready to support it. Instead, October 3, 1862 found Union Naval forces on the Blackwater River greatly outnumbered by Confederate infantrymen and ultimately forced to retreat. The naval action alone is also known as the Action at Crumpler's Bluff or the Battle of Crumpler's Bluff. Simultaneously, a nearby Army reconnaissance team conducted a failed assault on the town on the basis that the audibly nearby Naval forces—which they did not know were then in retreat—would bring support. The outcome left the Union forces with a combined 5 casualties and 21 wounded. Dialogue between officers following the conflict left the Union navy questioning the usefulness of gunboats in joint expedition settings in which they would not be capable of supporting themselves.

- L'expédition conjointe contre Franklin est un engagement conjoint de l’armée de terre et de la marine des États-Unis contre l'armée confédérée pendant la guerre de Sécession. L'expédition est destinée à déplacer les forces de l'Union dans la zone de rassemblement confédéré avant leur départ vers Suffolk en Virginie. Une fois sur place, les forces de l’Union ont prévu de lancer une attaque coordonnée d’infanterie sur deux fronts contre Franklin soutenue par l’artillerie de marine. Mais des retards de communication poussent la Marine à agir avant que l’infanterie ne soit prête à agir. En conséquence, le 3 octobre 1862 les forces navales de l'Union sur la rivière Blackwater se retrouvent totalement surpassées par les fantassins confédérés et doivent finalement battre en retraite. Cette partie navale de la bataille est également connue comme la bataille de Crumpler's Bluff. Peu après, une unité de reconnaissance de l'armée mène un assaut sur la ville qui échoue, car le soutien attendu de la marine alors en retraite ne peut être effectué. Cet assaut manqué coute cinq morts et 21 blessés aux troupes de l'Union. Par la suite, les officiers de l'Union se sont questionnés sur l'utilité des canonnières, incapable selon eux de subvenir à leurs besoins dans le cadre d'une expédition conjointe. (fr)
