You're trying to push 21st century attitudes and rationale on them, you can't do that. If you met these soldiers today their views would horrify you. That's what was normal back then


Of course it would. They were mostly a product of their time and place like most anyone else. I don't celebrate them, but I'm slow to condemn them by my modern morality with well over a century of more perspective.

Some of my family is rooted in the american south. If I were born 130 years earlier I could have easily been one if them.
