I am wondering how the soldiers both North and South cared for their bayonets. Did they let them rust to a certian extent, or did they clean them? I imagine in winter quarters, they would clean them, as well as dress parade, but while on campaign, when it rained, did they clean them, or were they ordered to clean them? I would greatly appreciate it if someone could enlight me on the matter.
