Come learn about the Battle of Sullivan’s Island during the American Revolution! Dr. Hamer presents an engaging account of the Battle of Sullivan’s Island. In June of 1776, the British attacked Fort Sullivan where the American Patriots fought to retain control of both the fort and the city of Charleston. Come listen to hear true accounts of the battle and help us celebrate America’s 250 anniversary!

Fritz Hamer received his MA and PhD in history from USC-Columbia. He spent 25 years at the SC State Museum as Curator of History researching and developing exhibitions on a variety of topics, ranging from the American Civil War and Reconstruction, World War I and II, and sports history with emphasis on baseball and football. He has spoken to many groups about these projects and related topics. Before retiring in 2020, he spent 4 years at the SC Confederate Relic Room and Military Museum as Historian and Archivist researching an exhibition about the Vietnam War. He spoke to many groups about this subject, seeking out veterans to interview and compiling more than 65 oral histories for the collection of the CRR.
