What important Union objective did Major General Quincy Adams Gilmore accomplish?

US Major General Quincy Adams Gilmore was victorious at the Battle of Olustee in 1864 in Florida. He is also remembered for his help to reconstruct Florida as a Union State and sever Confederate supply lines in Florida. IMPROVEMENT Gilmore was also pivotal in organizing and pressing, in cooperation with Admiral John Dahlgren, the formal siege operations of Charleston in 1863, which eventually forced the Confederates to evacuate Fort Wagner and abandon Morris Island on the night of September 6-7. Though Charleston remained unconquered until February 1865, its blockade was therefore strengthened, making the access to the bay and port virtually impossible for the blockade runners.
