I never heard of this battle that took place exactly 500 years to the day before I was born. Proves that even a paunchy middle-aged guy can learn something new every day.

Of course I’m more proud that John Moses Browning’s Model 1911 officially entered service exactly 50 years before my birth on 3/29/1911.

Here is an old FR thread from a couple years ago on the battle: Towton, the bloodbath that changed the course of English history

Stinking Lancastrians deserved what they got!

I support the Yorkists!!!

The damn Lancastrians produced the filthy Tudors.
The only Tudor worth anything was Elizabeth I

Isn’t 1461 a little late to be called strictly medieval?
