In the accounts of the 22 May 1863 Assault of Vicksburg there are refrences to fire ants and the torture they inflicted upon the wounded caught between the lines. Hogs, ants and the human vermin that often infected a field of battle after the battle had moved on were all quite grisly and terrifying to those helpless wounded. War is all hell.
