I am pretty sure Hood was a little crazy already and add to that he was jacked up on meds.

What was the considered the last major victory for the good guys?

I agree Trad Bow, its tough to come up with questions!
The answer to my question would be Chickamauga. Last time the good guys whipped the yanks on a big scale.
We have covered nearly every obscure subject in the WBTS and this is the 2nd thread, I think.

Heck, we've barely scratched the surface.

Which vessel was run aground and marooned on the first day of the battle of Hampton Roads?

Elfiii, I am near there now in N Outer Banks. Cant imagine sailing in these waters, with raging waves in calm or stormy weather. Merrimack.

Nope. It was a Union vessel, the frigate Minnesota. The Merrimac was held off from sinking it by the Monitor the next day and tugs pulled the Minnesota free.
