I love history. If nothing else, it's usually more awesomely weird than fiction.
Example: A British solider fighting with claymore (yes, the sword) and a longbow.... IN WORLD WAR 2.
Captian Jack Churchill.
Churchill gave the signal to attack by cutting down the enemy feldwebel (sergeant) with his barbed arrows, becoming the only known British soldier to have felled an enemy with a longbow in the course of the war.
(Wiki plus other)
