Gus served with conflicted pride in that uncivil war, seeing more battlefields than most and losing more of himself than he could reconcile. He was, in most ways, disillusioned before the war even began. By the time Joe Johnston surrendered at Durham Station, he could no longer tell up from down, and certainly not right from wrong.
