Know the difference between a fort----and a fortress???
A fortress has 'breastworks'. :D
Seriously tho, those are some great links Bones. I grew up near Galveston Island & my brother & I used to play in the gun encasements of Fort Crockett, back in the 50's, before the high rise hotels bought up all the property along the sea wall. It's a shame some of the historical areas were used as spoil dumps by the corps of engineers. They're lost for eternity now.
