Answer 2

Roughly about 500,000
According to Wikipedia, during the American Civil War, 1861-1865, 3,164,000 people served their countries, 2,100,000 from the Union and 1,064,000 from the Confederacy.

The Union lost 360,000 total war dead, of that number 110,000 were killed in action, and the Confederacy lost 260,000 total war dead, of that number 93,000 were killed in action. It seems hard to believe that so many died outside of combat, but for every one soldier killed because of combat, usually two or more died of disease.

Killed in Action (Union and Confederate): 203,000

Total Dead (Union and Confederate): 620,000

Another some 412,200+ were wounded, of that number 275,200 were Union, and 137,000+ were Confederate.

All said, some 635,200 Union soldiers were killed or wounded, and 397,000 Confederates were killed or wounded.

All together, 1,032,200 people were killed or wounded during the Civil War!
