Danh ngôn của Drew Gilpin Faust
Before the Civil War, there were no national cemeteries, no processes for identifying the dead in the battle. There weren't any dog tags, and there was no next-of-kin notification. You didn't necessarily even hear what the fate of your loved ones had been. It was up to their comrades to write and inform you.

Trước Nội chiến, không có nghĩa trang quốc gia, không có quy trình nhận dạng người chết trong trận chiến. Không có thẻ chó nào và không có thông báo cho người thân. Bạn thậm chí không nhất thiết phải nghe số phận của những người thân yêu của bạn đã ra sao. Việc viết thư và thông báo cho bạn là tùy thuộc vào đồng chí của họ.
