Were swords used in World War 1?
The only millilitres that distributed swords to infantry units during WW2 were the Japanese and british Indian armies. Japanese officers and sergeants used their katanas during combat, and at close range with deadly effect. The Indian swords were mainly traditional Sikh weapons, such as kukris. Armies from Germany to Mongolia and thorough the middle east also gave sabres to cavalry units as a backup to rifles... although today seen as suicidal WW2 cavalry charges with sabres were often well timed and successfully. Other countries mainly used knives and bayonets for close combat, although in the Pacific Theater and in Myanmar swords occasionally found their way into foreign hands.
Who had better cavalry in the Civil War?
At the outbreak of the war, most of the best cavalry officers joined the Confederates. Southern boys were more accustomed to the riding and shooting life, and not surprisingly, the Confederate cavalry ran rings round the Union in the first half of the war. There was a dramatic moment in May 1863 when the North suddenly pulled-off the most successful cavalry operation of all - a raid right down through the state of Mississippi that enabled Grant to cross the river unobserved by the garrison commander at Vicksburg. This not only helped to liberate the Mississippi and end the war in the West, but it was a triumph of good cavalry tactics in itself. The fact that it was led not by a West Point cavalryman but by a music teacher who was frightened of horses did not diminish the impact it made. After that, Union cavalry began to show equal calibre, though the legendary cavalry leaders of the war are still the Confederate ones.

Who was the best Calvary leader in the entire civil war?
Calvary is the name of the site of the crucifixion of Jesus just outside Jerusalem; it has absolutely nothing to do with the American Civil War.I guess you mean cavalry and it is possible to argue in favour of any of the many cavalry officers on both sides. My personal vote would be for the US General Benjamin Grierson. It is interesting to note that at the time, several prominent cavalry officers declared that both the Sioux and the Comanche were the "finest light cavalry in the world", a term neverused to describe either Union or Confederate cavalry troops.
