This was substantial and the figure is almost ten percent of all military deaths in the war.
Daily life for soldiers during the Civil War was often grueling and unpredictable. They faced harsh conditions in camps, including inadequate food, unsanitary living situations, and exposure to the elements. Soldiers spent long hours drilling, maintaining their weapons, and preparing for battle, interspersed with moments of boredom or anxiety. Communication with family was limited, and many struggled with the psychological toll of war, including the constant threat of injury or death.
