Civil War Air Corp
I just discovered something I did not know about the civil war. I saw an article about it in the Cricket magazine for children. Oct 2013 Vol. 41 No. 2

Yes, History Detective is a terrific show on PBS that has had numerous shows with regards to unusual inventions used during the Civil War. Shows have included the use of balloons for getting a view of the enemy troops and even a Confederate submarine where all hands were lost.
