Best Answer

The few confirmed incidents seem to have ended without the degrading punishments you imagine. The Union Generals tended to be fairly chivalrous.

But most stories about women serving in the armies were made up for sensational effect. Even Loreta Velasquez, a successful Confederate spy, who wrote brilliant war memoirs, could not carry conviction in her scenes of front-line infantry service with Grant in Tennessee.
