Best Answer

Fort Sumter. Only one soldier died in the battle.

Actually, THREE men died as a RESULT of the battle, though none of them were killed by enemy fire. All were accidents -- one Confederate by a misfiring cannon, and two Union soldiers died (one immediately, another mortally wounded) from wounds sustained during the 100-gun salute the Union soldiers were permitted to conduct as they lowered the U.S. flag .
