Lincoln could send personal letters or messages to military officers, offering direct encouragement or strategic guidance, which is less common for presidents to do today. This hands-on approach allowed him to maintain close communication with his generals and make tactical decisions in the Civil War. Additionally, he could grant promotions or special orders that reflect his unique involvement in military affairs, emphasizing his role as Commander-in-Chief.
