They seem to position it here that the blacks were the only ones sent home with nothing--it is my understanding that essentially everyone was sent home with essentially nothing because they had nothing to give them. Land grants were eventually awarded, and became responsible for settling parts of Ohio and especially Indiana. Courts were set up to examine individual soldiers (or soldier's families) claims for compensation. I have never seen anything that pointed to black RevWar veterans treated worse than whites in this regard, but it could have been.
