It can be argued that many of the New York Irish immigrants who entered military service, during the Civil War, did so to fulfill their own interests, and were not motivated to become assimilated into the main-stream of American society, which was predominantly the white, Protestant, middle class. The theory that military service, during the Civil War, led to advancement for the New York Irish can be disputed, as it can be proven that those who joined the Union Army where not interested in proving their loyalty to America, but were interested in making America a place of safety for future Irish immigrants. They also wanted to use the military skills, learned during the Civil War, to help them in any future plans needed to liberate Ireland from British rule. While some Irish entered the military due to a sense of gratitude, for being allowed to come to America, many enlisted since military service secured them a way of earning a living for themselves, and their families, but there is little to prove that even this would aid them in the war's aftermath. Anti-Irish and anti-Catholic prejudice was evident throughout the nineteenth century, showing that the New York Irish did not gain respect do to their participation in the military during the Civil War. Any advancement made in society was due to the Irish becoming politically active, their entering the Democratic Party, and their loyalty to the Catholic Church.
