Medieval Soldiers

While this doesn't relate directly to Richard III, I think the players are
pertinent enough to perhaps interest some here. Thanks to Chris G. and Rfer

The detailed service records of 250,000 medieval soldiers - including
archers who served with Henry V at the Battle of Agincourt - have gone
online.
The database of those who fought in the Hundred Years War reveals
salaries, sickness records and who was knighted.
The full profiles of soldiers from 1369 to 1453 will allow researchers
to piece together details of their lives.

very interesting. thanks for sharing. i've been looking at some of the "players" in the 1480's surnames. interesting associations of captains/commanders and underlings. especially in the early 1440's france.
 
thanks
