Hello everyone,

In addition to a group of some 40 or more men-at-arms comprised of the Duke's chamberlains and gentlemen of the chamber, providing the guard for the ducal banner, of its 8 cavalry squadrons and its 8 companies of mounted archers , the Household of Charles The Bold incorporated also 4 'ordinary household infantry' companies of 100 men each (404 men) and 4 more such company, this time described as 'extraordinary household infantry'of 100 men each (but understrength at 332) …

I would like to know how the 736 infantrymen of these 8 infantry companies were dressed and armed.

Thank you.
