Fort Henry and Fort Donelson were captured by General US Grant early in 1862. It was after the second victory, at Donelson, that US Grant demanded 'Unconditional Surrender' - a new phrase that caught the public imagination, made Grant famous overnight, and left him with a nickname that chimed favorably with 'U.S.' - his own initials, as well as his country's. It should be noted that very often US Grant granted parole to captured Confederate soldiers. The so-called "unconditional surrender" idea was a practice that was only sometimes used by the Union and by the South.
