The+Atlanta+Campaign+Union+Soldiers

**The Union and Confederate teams** The Union was a lot stronger than the Confederates. The Atlanta Campaign had the Military Division of the Mississippi that also held the Army of Cumberland, the Army of Ohio, and the Army of Tennessee. In all the Union held 98,500 to 112,000 soldiers. On the other hand the Confederates had only The Army of Tennessee, which is not the same Army of Tennessee that the Union is a part of, but the Confederates held only 50,000 to 65,000 soldiers. The result of the whole war was a Union victory. They had 31,687 soldiers that either got killed, wounded, or went missing or got captured. 4,423 soldiers died fighting for the north, 22,822 soldiers got wounded or injured, and 4,442 went missing or got captured. The confederates had 34,979 soldiers that got killed, injured, or went missing. 3,044 died, 18,952 got injured, and 12,983 went missing or got captured.
