The+Wilderness+Confederate+Soldiers

=
Confederate soldiers were organized by military specialty. The combat arms included infantry, cavalry and artillery. However, brigades were changed easily as the situation demanded. The regiment was the main form of permanent grouping. Brigades were usually formed once regiments reached the battlefield, according to where the regiment might be deployed, and alongside which other regiments. While on the march or in parade formation, Confederate Armies often displayed a wide array of dress, ranging from faded, patched-together regulation uniforms; rough, homespun uniforms colored with homemade dyes. Nearly 40% of the Confederacy's population were unfree. the work required to sustain the same society during war naturally fell disproportionately on black shoulders as well. ======

The Confederate soldiers were outnumber extreamely. It was nearly two to one every battle they had with the Union army. But oddly enough they won a quite of bit of battles but ofcourse not the war. They won several battles for they had many advantages. Their biggest advantage was their master minded generals. Being out numbered by the thousands the Southern army using great tactics, would fight back and hold off the North and would even win the battle. This happened a lot and the Southern army and they may of actually won if it weren't for their poor economic system. But before I get into the dis-advantages another strength they had was a hometown advantage for they were the ones getting invaded. This helped them out quite a bit. For one they were comfortable with the battle grounds because they were used to it for they have been on it before. This helped their generals plan better defenses and tactics to fight. Also since being the ones getting invaded this gave them a feeling that the North didn't have. They had to fight for not only their lives but their families as well. This made them better fighters. But the Southern army had also many dis-advantages as well. Thier biggest problem they had was their economy. They didn't have the right resources and money like the North. Because of that they had less guns, cannons, gun powder, clothing, food, all kinds of resources they just didn't have enough. Not only did they not have enough money, they didn't have as close as much men as the North did. They were out number two to one in every battle nearly which eventually wore them down to the point of surrendering.======

In this battle the Southern army was outnumbered 101,895 to 61.025. Having suffering a great loss of men but less than the North, they had 11,125 casualties and losses.
