" Civil War officially began on April 12, 1861, when Confederate troops lead by Gen. P. G. T. Beauregard attacked Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor. Like many leaders on opposing sides during this war, Beauregard had known Union Major Robert Anderson, the commanding officer of Fort Sumter since the 1830s when Beauregard was a cadet at West Point and Anderson was his artillery instructor."
