Quote:[A] staff ... to keep soldiers in line when acting as file closers. There's actually no evidence at all that the staff was used like this - or that it was even carried on the battlefield. It's just a guess based on nothing more than a couple of references to infantry sergeants from about 1700 years later happening to use their half-pikes like this.
Hello, my name is Harry.
