Yes. In the American Civil War the North had a formal navy. When General Grant was unable to defeat the confederate forces defending Vicksburg, Mississippi, he asked for help from Admiral Farragut. The United States Navy sailed up the Mississippi River to Vicksburg. Admiral Farragut's Battleships aimed their cannon on the larger Confederate force. After a brief battle, the army under General Pemberton fled to Vicksburg, and the army under Joseph E. Johnson fled to Jackson Mississippi.
Admiral Farragut decided to capture Mobile, Alabama. One of his officers yelled, "Sir, they have torpedoes."
Admiral Farragut replied, "Damn the torpedoes. Full speed ahead."
