Answer:

C. They were paid less than white soldiers.

Step-by-step explanation:

African Americans served in both the Union and Confederate militaries. The Union army paid black soldiers less than they paid white soldiers until the very end of the war. Black soldiers made up 10% of the army and served in command of naval ships and regiments.
