In close-ups of Henry Fleming, particularly in the initial engagement with the enemy, the lock plate on his musket is apparently stamped near the rear with a British Crown. While British arms were used by the Confederates lacking sufficient arms production capabilities, Fleming's group would have been issued US-produced rife muskets. In a close-up of another soldier, the US eagle stamped on the lock plate is clearly visible.
