Color bearers.

And almost always unarmed!

Colorbearers often bought a sidearm, though. The Colt 1849 Belt Pistol (medium frame size Colt) is generally accepted as the preferred weapon of the colorbearer.

I didn't know this about Company C always (usually?) being the color company. Very interesting.
