I find it fascinating that there is no(that I know of)real blockbuster movie a la Saving Private Ryan etc that has been made about this monumental war in American History except a few crappy tv movies that were made..I think it warrants a huge budget Steven Spielberg style movie ... I'm thinking it would be huge..

Officers keep their sidearms to maintain control of their troops. It doesn't mean that the troops didn't keep theirs also. Many troops had pistols, for close quarters.
