Yes. General Grant signed the treaty in the Appomattox Court House with Robert E. Lee that the fighting would stop and the soldiers would get to go home, and get all their possessions back. Obviously, they didn't have slaves anymore.

Why Civil War soldiers deserve to be remembered and honored?

Because you have the Yankee Soldiers which didn't like the fact of having slaves, then you have the Confederate Soldiers which are the ones that likes the fact of having slaves. You have to think about it which part of the soldiers would you prefer Yankeesor the Confederate. Me i would go with the Yankee side they are the ones that fought for slavery while the Confederate did what they do best going along with slavery; so to answer the question I think that the Yankee soldiers should be remembered and honored because they are the ones that really helped the most.

What were southern soldier's uniforms like during the civil war?

The ideal Confederate uniform was either a beechnut brown, or grey. It looked similer to the Union uniform, though adapted to Rebel classifications. Many soldiers did not own real uniforms, as the Confederate government was unable to supply all of its soldiers with complete uniforms. Many soldiers just wore their own clothes. Some took the uniforms of dead Rebel soldiers, after a battle or skirmish, for their own use. This was common especially when one was in need of shoes, as many soldiers had to go barefoot as the War progressed.
