Life At War
Same
- Deal With Diseases
- Many People Died From Diseases, The Risk Of Dying From Diseases Was 2 To 1.
- Not Clean
- Lived In Log Cabins Of "Dog Tents"
- Most Of The Time Soldiers Slept Out In The Elements Exposed To The Wind And Cold.
- To Keep Entertained The Soldiers Would Sing, Play Cards, Read, Write Letters, And Talk.
- Poor Hygiene
Because The Camps Were So Dirty And Full Of Disease Many People Would Die In The Camps Of Many Things. They Would Die Of Hunger, Disease, Cold, And Dehydration.
