According to Lincoln, what do the American people have to do to make sure that the U.S. soldiers who were killed at Gettysburg (and other battlefields) had not died "in vain"?

We have to remember and give them credit for the reason they died. They sacrificed their lives for America fight. Lincoln made the battle was an important battle because he invoked the principles of human equality something about a “a new birth of freedom”. I’m sorry I might be wrong but he had ideal of self government

He wanted to make sure the men that sacrificed their lives for a cause, and that cause be a just one. He wanted to preserve the union at all cost, as well as give all men equality and liberties that they deserved. That was the cause he found necessary, and the cause our men rallied behind.

Thats what I think at least,

Hope it helps.
