At the US Military Academy, located at West Point New York, instructor Dennis Hart Mahan made a reputation for himself regarding the value of entrenchments and other forms of fortifications. Engineering courses at the USMA qualified its graduates to construct battle fortifications as a defensive measure on the battlefields. Mahan however, also added the use of the bayonet when speaking about defensive fortifications. He recommended that the bayonet was an ideal weapon to be used in close quarters when defending field fortifications. Mahan was not alone in his beliefs regarding the value of the bayonet. USMA graduate Henry D. Grafton wrote in his 1854 publication titled A Treatise on Camp and March that the bayonet was an excellent weapon to repel assaults against field fortifications.It should be noted that the pistol, seemingly an excellent weapon to use in close quarters was not available to the rank and file infantryman.
