Introduction:

Vicksburg National Military Park (VICK) is comprised of several discontinuous units related to the US Civil War, including:

· The Campaign For Vicksburg: For 18 months Union and Confederate Forces engaged each other all through the region as they positioned for control of Vicksburg.

· The Siege of Vicksburg: For 47 days, the Union General US Grant held the Confederate Army and city of Vicksburg under a hard and brutal siege.

The multiple sites are managed under one administration and are located in and around a 40-mile radius surrounding Vicksburg, Mississippi.
