Re: One way or the other, not both

"The question here, was honor or dishonor intended toward the 54th? Were they thought to be criminals or soldiers by the southern officers who ordered the burial parties?"

Who knows the minds of men with any certainty? There is only two that I am aware of, GOD and his son.

The simple fact is whether the dead of the 54th Mass. killed at Fort Wager, were buried as soldiers, or as criminals, does not matter. Except as a political agenda for purposes of arguement to level charges of bigotry and racism. The fact of the matter is that the treatment of the men of the 54th Mass. does not appear to have been buried in any other matter than that which was accorded to 10's of Thousands of other soldiers on both sides, by burial parties of both sides, up to and including that period of the war.
