I believe that the best answer to the question: Which of the following statements about African American soldiers in the Civil War is NOT correct, would be, C: African American soldiers were awarded the Butler Medal but not allowed to receive the Medal of Honor.

Explanation:

At the onset of the Civil War, African Americans were not allowed to join the Union´s efforts, as it was feared that this would push more states to break up with the union. However, as the need arose, President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which was ratified by Congress, and African Americans were free to join the Union Army. It is true that the number of African Americans that were decimated by disease and combat was higher than white Americans basically because African Americans enlisted in great numbers and were mostly assigned to infantry. Also, it is true that African Americans, with a very counted 80 exceptions, were promoted in the Army, or named officers, and it is also true that African American soldiers fought in more than 400 combat engagements. However, what is NOT true, is that they were not awarded the Medal of Honor. In fact, historical data shows that by the end of the War, about 16 African Americans had already been awarded with the Medal of Honor. This is why C is the correct choice.
