What role did the army play in that?

None.

Because sauce for the goose ought to be sauce for the gander.

If the gander is engaging in the same kind of rebellion that the goose is then I would agree.

None.

Exactly my point. They weren't using the army to free slaves, they were using the army to make sure slaves didn't leave the Washington DC plantation.
