Thanks for demonstrating my point. Here is how your own source describes the so-called black confederate soldier...African Americans who served with the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War (1861-1865).

Yeah we already know there were black slaves and servants 'marching alongside' the confederate army, pardner. However, these men were not issued weapons nor did they fight as soldiers. They were there to cook and clean and drove and livery, they were NOT soldiers anymore than they were free.
