“Based on the confederate leadership’s record of racism, this could explain the lack of rebel documentation.”
Ask NS why the Union had segregated troops! And why the Union pressed the Blacks into service after the Confederacy already had them serving in integrated units.
Plus, the Union made sure to destroy all the Confederate records they could get their hands on. I’ve got another link I’ll post for dump truck tomorrow. It’s a black descendent of a Confederate soldier and he has a pic of his soldier ancestor. Didn’t have much time for forum today.
These are the most racist and statist people I’ve ever seen!
If you read the "Godfather" by mario Puzo, you can understand the mentality of these neo-yanks.
When the confederate government finally got around to authorizing black combat troops why did the legislation mandate that they be organized into segregated units?

You people truly are shameless. You can go to the Congressional Globe archives and find every word of every debate of every session of the confederate congress. You can go to the OR and find an entire series - 4 volumes - of nothing but documents from the confederate army. And there are thousands of confederate documents in the other 60-odd volumes as well. And yet you claim that the Union destroyed all the confederate records they could get their hands on. You can't even lie well.

This should be amusing.
