The original enlistment period for soldiers in the Civil War was typically three years. However, some soldiers initially enlisted for shorter terms, such as three months, especially during the early stages of the conflict in 1861. As the war progressed and the need for more troops increased, longer enlistment terms became more common. Ultimately, many soldiers ended up serving beyond their initial commitments due to the war's duration and intensity.
