A private in the Union army was paid $13 per month. That was raised to $16 in 1864 due to inflation. A private in the Confederate army was paid $11 per month, raised to $18 per month in 1864 (however by then the money was pretty much valueless anyway)
What Union general was known as tardy George during the US Civil War?
George McClellan, an indecisive Union commander who Abraham Lincoln dubbed as having a case of "the slows." While President Lincoln was unhappy with McClellan was clear. What dims the harsh term used against McClellan was the fact that on two occasions, President Lincoln first promoted him to General in Chief, then reversed himself, then after relieving him of duty with regards to the Army of the Potomac, Lincoln then reappointed him to lead that army over the objections of his cabinet.
