Many do not know it, but thousands of under-aged boys enlisted in the army, both North and South during the Civil War. Some fought very well along side their older comrades. Here is one such recruit...:laughing7:

It was about the grayest uniform I could find. The rebel army was very mismatched however, so I can get away with that.
