Active Operations and Sub-Operations

  • The Peninsula(r) Campaign (Day 145/170) - Union Major General George B. McClellan continues the first large-scale offensive in the Eastern Theater with the ultimate goal of seizing the Confederate capital at Richmond. A series of amphibious assaults pushes more and more Confederate troops up the Virginia Peninsula towards the city, but the combined leadership of Generals Joseph E. Johnston and Robert E. Lee proves too costly for the Union to continue. (March 17-September 2, 1862)
