This episode prominently features the Spencer repeating rifle. I've always wondered why the Union didn't use this weapon in greater numbers and this episode underscores that thought very nicely. Col. John Wilder uses this weapon as a force multiplier with great success. It's a great episode that answers questions, raises new ones and reminds us that technology is not a substitute for bravery and leadership.
