Something missing in the translation? ‘Tights' is the British word for what Americans call ‘pantyhose'… |

I think its probably supposed to be "mercenary reiters", |

Yes, they are reiters. The auto translator Armand used translated it as tights.
The Reiters mostly consisted of Germans and served in the armies of the German states, in Sweden as "ryttare", in Poland as Polish: "rajtaria", and elsewhere. Reiter regiments (Russian: рейтары, romanized: reitary) also operated in Russian armies between the 1630s and the early 18th century … From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReiterJim |

Yes, but I had to open this and look at all the knees in the photos assuming they were tights like men wore in the Elizabethan era. Grelber |
