Helmet cameras show a giant rock that fired thunderbolts out of bulbous extremities.

Out of the approximate three million deaths, 500,000 are Union casualties, 2,250,000 are rebel, and 250,000 are civilian. Union has deployed 1.5 billion troops, while the rebels have over an astounding 5 billion+, the Union not releasing all the information of the war to the public.
