How much 'skill' and 'training' did it take to become proficient in using a longbow and using a sword (lets say a broadsword)? I've heard that with some of these weapons, it required a lifetime of training to really know what you're doing. With others, you could essentially pick the thing up and go. Were your traditional 'knights' actually skilled warriors? Or just aristocratic dudes with a lot of money that picked up weapons, gave themselves a title, and charged into the fray? How common was it for military commanders to fight alongside their infantry in battle? Were there ever any cases of some famous commander leading a charge up front? Or did all the rich, wealthy 'leaders' just sit back in the rear and watch the murder unfold?
