Fort Scott Soldier

The United States Colored Volunteer Infantry joined the Union Army at Fort Scott, Kansas, and fought in the Midwest during the Civil War. Fort Scott was one of the first U.S. Army installations to deploy Colored Volunteer Infantry into battle. The clouds of war engulf this frightened man. "Will I live or die?" is just one question haunting this infantryman. There are no answers in these clouds of war - only a foreboding uncertainty of an unknown future and the knowledge that he will fulfill his duty.
