Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Amateur officers, including those who were self-taught or had limited military experience, played important roles in both the Union and Confederate armies. While there were certainly professional officers with Ivy League backgrounds, this statement is not true for all professional officers on both sides, so option E is incorrect. Option B is partially true, as Northern and Southern commanders did come from different regions and social backgrounds, but the question specifically asks about military command and not overall leadership. Option A is false as it implies that all professional officers were Ivy League graduates, which is incorrect.
