The Confederate general in charge of firing on Fort Sumter was Brigadier General P.G.T. Beauregard. He commanded the Confederate forces during the attack on the fort, which marked the beginning of the American Civil War on April 12, 1861. Beauregard's orders initiated the bombardment that ultimately led to the fort's surrender.
