The Confederates held their fire until the assaulting wave was near the redan and then opened with a devastating volley. Nevertheless, Union soldiers were able to bridge the ditch and two color bearers planted flags on the exterior slope. But the Southern fire was so intense that the Union soldiers retreated. Grant did not order any more frontal assaults after the 22 May. Info taken from http://www.nps.gov/archive/vick/sitemap. htm
