What caused franklin thompson to desert from the union army?

Franklin Thompson caught malaria and was afraid to go to the army hospital because he was actually a woman named Sarah Edmonds. Because of this he/she deserted the army.

the answer would be logic.

this means that germany had to pay the allied countries. reparations are/is essentially payment for something that they have done wrong, so after ww1, germany was forced to pay reparations so they could replenish the allied countries resources' that they had lost during the war.
