I agree with your answers to 1 and 2. I don't know what your text says about #3. Generally, African-American troops fought bravely in the Union Armies. At Honey Springs, they repelled the Confederate force and were praised by their white commander as the bravest and best troops he ever commanded. On the Confederate side, few were allowed to participate in battle as troops, but served as servants to white troops, thus "maintaining the camps" may be correct. But, whatever your text materials say is going to be "correct". Double-check.
