The Battle of Grand Gulf was fought on April 29, 1863, during the American Civil War. As part of Major General Ulysses S. Grant's Vicksburg campaign, seven Union Navy ironclad warships commanded by Admiral David Dixon Porter bombarded Confederate fortifications at Grand Gulf, Mississippi. One of the Confederate fortifications, named Fort Wade, was silenced, but the other, named Fort Cobun, continued firing. Due to the strong Confederate resistance, Grant and Porter decided it was not feasible to make an amphibious landing at Grand Gulf, but later landed at Bruinsburg, Mississippi, instead. After the Confederates were defeated at the Battle of Port Gibson on May 1, Grand Gulf was rendered indefensible and the fortifications were abandoned. The defenders of Grand Gulf then fought at the Batt

(ar) La bataille de Grand Gulf est une bataille navale de la guerre de Sécession qui s'est déroulée le 29 avril 1863. Lors de la campagne de Vicksburg du major général Ulysses S. Grant, les forces navales de l'Union sous le commandement du contre-amiral David D. Porter mènent sept ironclads dans une attaque contre les fortifications et les batteries confédérées à Grand Gulf, en aval de Vicksburg, Mississippi. Bien que les confédérés résistent au bombardement de l'Union et empêchent le débarquement de l'infanterie contre leur fortification, la défaite n'est qu'un revers mineur dans le plan de Grant pour la traversée du fleuve Mississippi et l'avance contre Vicksburg. (fr) De Slag bij Grand Gulf vond plaats op 29 april 1863 tijdens de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog. Vice-admiraal leidde een aanval van zeven kanonneerboten op een Zuidelijke batterij bij Grand Gulf. Hoewel de Zuidelijken het bombardement weerstonden en voorkwamen dat de Noordelijken troepen aan land zetten, was dit slechts een kleine tegenslag voor generaal-majoor Ulysses S. Grant in zijn veldtocht tegen Vicksburg. (nl) The Battle of Grand Gulf was fought on April 29, 1863, during the American Civil War. As part of Major General Ulysses S.
