Was Idaho confederates in Civil War?

The simple answer is no. Idaho became a territory in 1863 so it wasn't even a state. The only state in the west at the time was California and it was a member of the Union. The Idaho Territory did not have any Civil War battles in it. At the time of the Civil War there were battles with the indigenous populations, those being the Shoshone and Bannock. The Shoshone were typically found in lands towards Utah while the Bannock were at Fort Hall (near Pocatello). Hope this helps.

What was the Kia date for the US Army William Pease during combat in the ETO?

William Pease was drafted by the US Army in the spring of l944. He left for induction on the 26th of June l944 from a small town in central Idaho, Shoshone. His parents moved to Wyoming after his induction, so he would be listed as a KIA from the state of WY rather than Idaho. I believe he was KIA in the spring of 45. He was probably 18 years old when he lost his life. There must be a list of US Army soldiers from the State of Wyoming who were killed in action in WW 2.
