		On June 18, 1429, French and English forces met at the Battle of Patay.
		Indeed, at Patay more than at Orleans, it was mostly the leadership of commanders like La Hire, and not that of Joan herself, that won the day; Joan seemed to serve as a good luck charm, but she was not the one responsible for the French army's clever tactics.

		Events growing out of the Battle of Patay of 18 June 1429 are the story told by Hugh Collins in "Sir John Fastolf, John Lord Talbot and the Dispute over Patay: Ambition and Chivalry in the Fifteenth Century." Fastolf had been a knight of the Garter since 1426, and Talbot since 1424.
		The battle had no great and decisive impact on the course of the civil war, but was one more step toward the ultimate victory of the parliamentary forces.

		The Maid of Orleans gave rise to a new feeling of French nationalism, and that was to be the undoing of the English, even with Joan being burned as a witch.
		We have named this sword after the Battle of Patay, which was a small but very bloody skirmish.
		Attacking quickly, giving the English no time to form a line of battle, the French smashed in and closed for some very bloody hand-to-hand combat, where sword, axe, mace and halberd played a major role.

		Judged by results, Patay's place is with the few supremely great and imposing battles that have been fought since the peoples of the world first resorted to arms for the settlement of their quarrels.
		Within six years after Patay he was leading storming parties himself; fighting in fortress ditches up to his waist in water, and climbing scaling-ladders under a furious fire with a pluck that would have satisfied even Joan of Arc.
		Patay and Orleans and the Coronation were events which in a vague way these men understood to be colossal; but they were colossal mists, films, abstractions; this was a gigantic reality!

		Withdrawal and retreat of the English began early on the morning of 18th June.
		The English where 'about a league' from the town of Patay, 20 miles North of Meung, when the French cavalry fell like a thunderclap upon the rearguard, which was commanded by John Fastolf.
		Fastolf then galloped after the vanguard to recall it to the battle, but the captains of the vanguard took his headlong arrival as the signal for 'sauve qui peut' and the English army collapsed.

	JOAN of ARC as MILITARY COMMANDER
		But in the leading and drawing up of armies and in the conduct of war, in disposing an army for battle and haranguing the soldiers, she behaved like the most experienced captain in the world, like one with a whole lifetime of experience.
		And everyone was astonished that she acted with such prudence and clear-sightedness in military matters, as cleverly as some great captain with twenty or thirty years experience; and especially in the placing of artillery, for in that she acquitted herself magnificently.
		Patay would not be a replay of Crecy, Poitiers and Agincourt, with French battalions advancing and retreating of their own accord to destruction.

		There are also three battle scenes that depict Joan's crossing of the Loire, Sir William Glasdale taunting Joan from the battlements and the Battle of Patay.
		The Battle of Patay is particularly interesting since it was one of the few occasions that the vaunted French cavalry actually showed what it was capable of doing on a battlefield; in about one hour the English army retreating from Orléans was thoroughly smashed by a vigorous French pursuit.

		The following map is based mostly upon one made by Michel de Lombarès for his 'Patay, 18 juin 1429', in RHA 1966.
		The traditional perception of the 'battlefield' for the Battle of Patay is reflected in the works of the military historians Alfred Burne [Agincourt War] and Michel de Lombarès ['Patay, 18 juin 1429].
		DeVries suggests that the traditional field known as 'la cimetière aux Anglais' (the English cemetery) was to the west of Coinces, not slightly east and south as shown in Lombarès map.
