I was a soldier in the Civil War
Memory: I saw myself as a soldier in what I feel was the Civil War. I could see myself as one of a group of several men. It must have been toward the end of the war as we were dressed in an odd assortment of parts of uniforms and civilian clothing. The bits of uniform that we did wear were dark blue, so I am assuming that we were part of the Confederate Army. Two of us were laying on our stomachs, looking down from a ridge at a length of the tracks of a railroad. I had the impression that we were supposed to be guarding that strip of railroad from attack or destruction and that we chose the spot that we were at as a good vantage point to watch it. The person I was next to was my father in this life, but my good friend in that life. I don't know much about tactics or fighting in the Civil War, and I would like to know if this memory makes sense to anyone who does. Would a small unit of only six or seven men be dispatched to do something like "guard" a stretch of railroad?
