Faith, purity, loyalty were here greatest traits.
Rheims (l429) and Orleans ( same year) are her best known campaigns. there was a poem about Joan of Arc which unfortunately had a rhythmic quality that suggested the upbeat song- Happy Days are Here again- and there were various towns mentioned in the song- not necessarily battle sites. Tours, Arles and Domremy ( her home town) reply- and Joan of Arc goes riding by- it sounds TOO much like ( Happy Days are Here Again!)
It has been suggested (Charlie) which may have honored her Patron, King Charles Vii. That"s Charles the seventh. it is easy to remember- as the word Charles has seven letters. Charles was married once, and also had a mistress Agnes Sorel, who had an elaborate state funeral, quite unlike Joan. about a year ago the body of Agnes Sorel was disinterred and an autopsy was performed. I kid you not. a Girl who has been dead for over 500 years!- and not an Egyptian mummy, either.
Joan of Arc is the correct spelling, not Joan of Ark.
