Slaves slaving for their masters in the Confederate Army were not soldiers. Until March 1865, it was against Confderate law for black people -- slave or "free" -- to bear arms. While a handful may have picked up a gun here or there, the whole notion of black Confederate soldiers is a hoax -- and an insult to the memory of the 210,000 black patriots who serned in the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy during the Civil War.
