Its been harsh as a new recruit. We as Negro soldiers have faced many challenges like lower pay and disrespect. Were treated bad by the white union soldiers, they feel as if were not good enough to go to war. Our colonel Robert shaw, a good man, but he treats us negroes like children. Our regiment hasn't fought in any battle but we've learned how shoot guns and discipline. War has hasn't been anything like i've imagined I haven't fought for my country yet and we haven't been training for war as much as we have been doing hard labor. Sincerely, Daddy
Dear, Mary This war has placed a lot of stress on me. As president I must stop union states from seceding, and finding enough men to fight. I've tried fixing theses challenges by suspending the constitution right of habeas corpus, and creating a military draft law. I have no regrets about my decisions . I feel that my decisions will all help us win the war. My Emancipation Proclamation has proved to be great. Using free slaves to fight in war has proved to improve our odds in the battle.
SIncerely , Abraham Lincoln

July, 2nd , 1862 Dear, Rebecca I haven't seen any combat in weeks. Its been hard to coop with all this extra time. Its been very boring these couple of weeks. I've been having to keep myself busy doing various activities. Riding, hunting, singing and helping wounded soldiers. Around here all i hear is the screams of soldiers being amputated. I see people drop dead from thirst and infected wounds daily. I just want to fight for my county. I promise that i'll be back home safe. Sincerely, James

REFLECTION
The most surprising thing that i've learned is that the slaves were freed to increase americas odds in war. This was surprising because even when the African Americans were fighting in war they were being treated badly by White Union soldiers and didn't get the respect other soldiers did. In the civil war I think the nurses faced on of the hardest challenges. Why because they had the responsibility to care for many wounded soldiers and treat them back to health. I think that the Civil war was overall necessary. Why because it helped free the African Americans, Stopping slavery in the U.S.
