Explanation: Battle of Cold Harbor, (May 31–June 12, 1864), disastrous defeat for the Union Army during the American Civil War (1861–65) that caused some 18,000 casualties. Continuing his relentless drive toward the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia, General Ulysses S. Grant ordered a frontal infantry assault on General Robert E. Lee’s Confederate troops, who were now entrenched at Cold Harbor, some 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Richmond. The result was Lee’s last major victory of the war and a bloodbath for the Union army. An earlier battle at Cold Harbor, on June 27, 1862, is sometimes called the Battle of Gaines’s Mill, the First Battle of Cold Harbor, or the Battle of Chickahominy River and was part of the Seven Days’ Battles (June 25–July 1), which ended the Peninsular Campaign (April 4–July 1), the large-scale Union effort earlier in the war to capture Richmond; it, too, was a Confederate victory.
The war ended when the U.S and Spanish governments signed the signed the Treaty of Paris on December 10, 1898. The U.S won the war.

The US reorganized it's economy to produce food, arms, and other goods to support the war effort. The Food Administration helped boost food production to feed both American troops and Allied troops fighting in the war. The Food Administration also encouraged citizens to plant their own "Victory Gardens" to raise their own food. People went without wheat on Mondays, and without meat on Tuesdays, saving the food for the men fighting in the trenches. The US was short on military supplies, at the time they entered WW1. The War Industries Board told factories what to produce and at what price. The War Labor Board helped settle workers disputes in order to prevent strikes and labor unrest, which would slow down production of needed supplies.
