Joseph Glarthaar’s Forged in Battle is not the first excel-

lent study of Black soldiers and their White officers in the

Civil War, but it uses more soldiers’ letters and diaries—

including rare material from Black soldiers—and concen-

(5) rates more intensely on Black-White relations in Black

regiments than do any of its predecessors. Glathaar’s title

expresses his thesis: loyalty, friendship, and respect among

White officers and Black soldiers were fostered by the

mutual dangers they faced in combat.

169. The author implies that the title of Glatthaar’s book refers specifically to which of the following?

(A)   The sense of pride and accomplishment that Black soldiers increasingly felt as a result of their Civil War experiences

(B)   The civil equality that African Americans achieved after the Civil War, partly as a result of their use of organizational skills honed by combat

(C)   The changes in discriminatory army policies that were made as a direct result of the performance of Black combat units during the Civil War

(D)  The improved interracial relations that were formed by the races’ facing of common dangers and their waging of a common fight during the Civil War (D)

(E)   The standards of racial egalitarianism that came to be adopted as a result of White Civil War veterans’ repudiation of the previous racism

答案D没有问题，只是想问一下d中waging的含义。工资？好像不是。
