1863 Confederate Greensmith Infantry Infantryman Malcolm Trooper
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the stoic determination of a Confederate infantryman during the American Civil War (1861-1865). Dressed in the standard gray uniform of the Confederate States Army, the soldier wears a slouched hat adorned with a Confederate star and a bandolier across his chest, holding a musket at the ready. The infantryman's expression is one of unwavering resolve, as if he is prepared to face any challenge that comes his way. The American Civil War was a pivotal moment in United States history, marking the end of slavery and the reunification of the country. Lasting from 1861 to 1865, the war resulted in the deaths of over 600,000 soldiers and civilians. The Confederate Army, made up primarily of infantry troops like the one depicted in this photograph, fought valiantly against the Union Army. This infantryman's uniform is typical of those worn by Confederate soldiers during the war. The gray fabric was chosen to blend in with the environment and minimize the visual impact of the Confederate army on the battlefield. The uniform also included a blue or butternut-colored waistcoat and trousers, as well as a gray or butternut-colored greatcoat for colder weather. The photograph, taken in 1863, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the lives of the soldiers who fought in one of the most significant conflicts in American history. The infantryman's unwavering gaze and the folds of his uniform tell a story of courage, sacrifice, and resilience in the face of adversity.
