GOP nominee in the Pennsylvania gubernatorial race Doug Mastriano dressed up as a soldier for the Confederate army, which fought to preserve slavery in the Civil War, a new photo reveals.

Retired Army colonel Doug Mastriano, a Republican state senator from Pennsylvania who is running for governor, poses at left in a Confederate uniform in a 2013-14 faculty photo at the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, U.S. April 9, 2014. The photo was released by the Army War College to Reuters on August 26, 2022 under the Freedom of Information Act. Mastriano retired from the Army in 2017.

The photograph dates from the 2013-14 school year when Mastriano taught at the prestigious Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Mastriano, then a colonel and an instructor in the Department of Military Strategy, Plans, and Operations, posed for a group photo with other faculty members. Mastriano now serves the Gettysburg area in the state Senate. Pennsylvania was, of course, part of the Union during the Civil War, and Gettysburg was one of the bloodiest single battle of the war and is seen as a turning point in the defeat of the South.
