Good afternoon,
I'm prepping for an infantry company-level officer impression, and I'm having some troubles finding information in the Regulations or Ordnance Manual for what an officer might have to go along with his pistol. Obviously, a holster is a given, but would they have a cartridge box or cylinder box of some sort? Would they also have a cap box? Should I be looking to the regs for a cavalry officer for guidelines on pistol wear?
EDIT: While I'm thinking on it, would a company officer carry a haversack and canteen?
