Since both armies needed people, young boys were drafted,(forced to join) the army, most of which were put to work as drummer boys or they held the flags for their country.
No. The troops were young men and boys. The boys were drummer boys, but many did fight as well.

No, drummer boys of the civil war did not carry weapons. All they did is drum.
By being drummer boys
The North had more men, and they consequently lost more.

Civil War
Hi, I am doing a report on civil war drummer boys. I have reserched a lot and have found that during the civil war drummer boys sometimes didn't even have uniforms. Some wore what ever they had. Others, wore left over uniforms that usually did not fit. If you have any questions i would be glad to answer them! For other boys it depended on the side they were fighting for.
