專家說明
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries spontoons were part of the full dress of senior officers (except adjutants) on formal occasions in grenadier and musketeer regiments, garrison regiments and battalions, Guards infantry regiments and cadet corps. In 1806 they were repealed for cadet corps officers and in 1807 for all of the other officers previously authorised to carry them.
