spontoon การใช้

As late as the 1890s, the spontoon could still be seen accompanying marching soldiers.
The spontoon was one of few pole weapons that stayed in use long enough to make it into American history.
Its last flowering was the half-pike or spontoon, a shortened version of the pike carried by officers and NCOs.
During the Napoleonic Wars, the spontoon was used by Sergeants to defend the colours of a battalion or regiment from cavalry attack.
After the musket replaced the pike as the primary weapon of the foot soldier, the spontoon remained in use as a signalling weapon.
