** The men in the seven units who did not want a parole (which meant if they took it and were exchanged they'd have to return to Confederate service) were offered an opportunity to sign an oath of future allegiance to the United States as an alternative to being sent to prison and many signed the oath.
** Many of them eventually joined the Union Army.
Again, there is not much information available as far as this mutiny is concerned.
