At the start of the Civil War, a significant portion of the United States armed forces was indeed stationed in the West, dealing with frontier duties and conflicts with Native American tribes. The other options are incorrect: the U.S. did have a navy, not almost all forces defected to the Confederacy, the troop number was much smaller than 400,000 initially, and the army was not largely made up of draftees at the start of the war.
