Charley was filling his canteen the next morning after the battle, and when the sun came up, he could see that the water he was drinking was pink, and he looked upstream to find dead bodies in the water. This made him sick, but he company had started marching. They stopped in Washington to get new uniforms and men, and headed back south. The union troops were told not to steal fruit from locals, but did it anyway.

Charley Goddard is a 15 year old boy who lives in Minnesota and he hears about the civil war that is taking place. He decides he wants to be a man so he tells his mother that he is going off to Fort Snelling and lying about his age to enlist in the army. He says he is 18, and nobody says anything, and he boards a train headed down south. When passing Maryland, he sees a black woman, and she hands him a sweet roll.
