In August, 1861, Fisher’s regiment arrived in Washington by train, and soon after he was detailed to the Signal Camp of Instruction, to assist Major Albert Myer in creating the Signal Corps. Generally, a signal officer’s mission was to produce intelligence reports. While shadowing Confederate columns near Aldie, Virginia, Fisher was captured and sent to Libby Prison. On February 9th, 1864, 109 prisoners tunneled out of Libby Prison, with Fisher leading the second party of ten. He eventually found his way back to Union Lines at Williamsburg, and eventually earned the rank of Brigadier General, resigning in 1866.
