This sounds like it's related to the Gettysburg Address, where Lincoln said (in part):
"We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract."
In other words: Abraham Lincoln said they couldn't do it. You want to argue with him, fine, but I personally think he's right.
Because of the period, African American soldiers could not be officers. Therefore, the highest rank possible to attain was as an enlisted soldier, which was Sergeant Major
There could be hundreds, if not thousands of soldiers who had those initials. Got any more information to narrow it down?
It killed them,basicly.The lack of food and the quality of whatever they COULD find was low and their enemys could just sneak in the night and kill them in their sleep,which made some soldiers extremely paranoid.The reload time of their weapons was also a issue,as they had to stand in open ground to insert the pathetic balls of iron and the gunpowder only to have to do it again,and again,and again. To say it in a more shorter form,it sucked.Bad.Really,really bad.
There are certain civil liberties we should give up during war, one being that we should house soldiers. If I were a soldier now in Iraq or Afghanistan, I would want all those here who support me to do whatever we could to insure that my sacrifice, if necessary my death, served both safety and liberty for those people there and for our people here.
Answer Their horses so they could plow their crops. And I believe their rifles, so they could hunt for food.
A person fighting the Civil War on the side of the South could expect, at the very best, to be living in a tent as a bedroom. Many soldiers slept on the ground wherever they could if there were not enough tents to go around. Soldiers would also sleep in barns or other buildings when they could. Many did not have blankets or a bed roll.
The Union soldiers wore blue uniforms while the Rebel soldiers wore gray.
Yes she helped the wounded soldiers in the civil war. Then later established the red cross. She then gave the homeless people food medicine and shelter too, as was said in her speech. They moved hospitals near the battlefields so they could reach the soldiers and help them.
Lincoln said that the dead soldiers had consecrated the ground and his mere words could do nothing to hallow it any more.
It was so the Allied armies could get soldiers and vehicles on the ground in Europe.
Civil War field hospitals were tents on the battle ground used to treat people. They could also be converted from homes, barns and any other buildings.
They could nurse the wounded soldiers. Sourdough. J/K
The soldiers had translators with them and they learned the language best they could while in Vietnam.
she treated sickness so people could live longer like she helped soldiers she treated sickness so people could live longer like she helped soldiers
they tried to get the soldiers to bye their ammunition so they could make a profit off of it. And if not the soldiers would take what they needed on the battle field when that person would die. even one of their own soldiers.
About 620,000 soldiers died in the U.S. civil war. The Union lost around 360,000 killed (110,000 in combat) and the Confederacy lost around 260,000 killed (93,000 in combat). About 360,00 Union soldiers and around 260,000 Confederate solders died in the American Civil War. A hole 5 percent of the states population was lost. Many were wounded. Back then the medican was so premature all they could do to save the wounded was to amputate. All they could amputate were limbs. Stomache wounds were fatal. More soldiers died from diseases than from battle wounds from the poor living conditions, and because many soldiers did not know how to live off the land. About 600,000 people died from the north and south in the American Civil War (1861 t0 1865). There are some published estimates that reach up to 650,000 US Civil War deaths.
during the civil war, it was the line of soldiers around a barracks that no prisoner could cross or they would be shot.
