Civil War Union Soldiers Camp Scene - Historic Photograph #3710263 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white photograph captures a moment of respite among Union troops during the American Civil War, likely taken between 1862-1865. The soldiers are arranged informally around a canvas tent draped with a large U.S. flag featuring 34 stars, indicating the period after Kansas’s admission (1861) but before Nevada (1864). Some hold rifles, while others sit or lean on equipment, suggesting a temporary bivouac rather than active combat.
