One letter that started a life-long friendship. When the Wright Brothers were looking for a place to test their gliders, they sent a letter to the Kitty Hawk Life-Saving Station and it ended up in the hands of the postmaster William Tate. Tate responded to the brothers telling them this would be a fine area for them to conduct their tests.

About a month later Wilbur showed up on his doorstep ready to set up camp to test their first glider. William Tate provided Wilbur his first place to stay on the Outer Banks, gave him food, and helped assemble the Wright Brothers' aircraft. Without the hospitality of William Tate, the Wright Brothers may never have succeeded at flying their aircraft here. William Tate had a long career as a postmaster, lifesaver, lighthouse keeper, and friend of the Wright Brothers. Sometimes, you never know how one letter in the hands of the right person can turn into something great!

On February 7, 1862, Federal ships attacked Fort Bartow, part of the Confederate defenses on Roanoke Island. Fort Bartow, one of three Confederate forts, was the only one actively engaged in the Battle of Roanoke Island. It fired the first shot of the battle before being bombarded by the Federal fleet for seven hours. The Confederate fleet, led by Captain W. F. Lynch, tried to hold off the Federals but had to retreat due to a lack of ammunition after a brief engagement. The following day, the Union army emerged victorious, gaining control of the North Carolina Sound region.
