What was Joan of Arc's occupation?

Joan's job was to command the French army, that is, to lead, direct, and most importantly, inspire it to fight and defeat the English invaders. She had help from some great French military commanders, like Count Dunois, the Duke D' Alencon, and Captain La Hire, but it was Joan who often insisted that the French attack, when these very commanders wished to do nothing but wait for reinforcements. One of Joan of Arc's greatest quotes was, "Have good spurs! All of You!" Her commanders asked her, do you mean for us to retreat? And Joan yelled, "No! Chase them! For that you'll need good spurs!" This resulted in the famous Battle of Patay, in which the English were soundly defeated in an open field battle as they were retreating toward Paris, with over 2000 men killed and one of their commanders, Lord William Talbot, captured. This was on June 18th, 1429. The commander, Lord John Fastolf, was cited for cowardice in retreating before the enemy in this battle and lost his order of the garter.

How did Joan of Arc's sister die?

Joan's sister (Catherine) is believed to have died in childbirth. Her death must have been after mid-1429 because there's a quote from Joan (related by an eyewitness) dated from about August 1429 mentioning a desire to return home and see her sister again. The film "The Messenger" invented a purely fictitious English attack on Joan's village during which Catherine is killed and then posthumously raped by an English soldier when Joan was a young child. This never happened. The only two attacks on Joan's village were the following: a minor assault in 1425 (by a Burgundian army led by Henri d'Orly) during which some livestock were stolen and then later returned; and a more serious attack in July of 1428 (by another Burgundian army led by Antoine de Vergy) during which the crops were burned and some of the buildings were damaged. There was no loss of life since the villagers had fled to the nearby city of Neufchatel before the troops arrived. Joan's family and some of the other villagers spent that time at an inn run by a widow nicknamed "la Rousse". Catherine was not killed during that attack, the army which launched the attack was not English, nor did the incident occur during Joan's childhood - she would have been around sixteen in 1428.

Did st Joan of Arc have military training?

No she Didi not. Before she consulted the dauphin about her vision from God she had wondered about her lack of battle expertise. She did not know how to ride a horse or to fight.

Why did Joan Crawford and Bette Davis hate each other?

It is not clear that Joan and Bette 'hated' each other. Joan and Bette made only one picture together - Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. The actresses were similar in that they were both stars, Oscar winners, and strong personalities. Joan was the more glamorous of the two. Bette was more of a classical actress with stage training. Joan started as a hoofer. They may have had personality differences. In 1935, Joan married Franchot Tone. Bette had co-starred with Franchot Tone in the film Dangerous and was reportedly smitten with him. In 1939, Franchot and Joan divorced. Some theories report that Bette was not happy with the nuptials of Joan and Franchot and was a bit jealous. When Joan left MGM in 1943 to work for Warner Brothers, Bette was the main star at the Warner Bros. lot. In order to ingratiate herself to Bette, Joan sent many gifts (as was Joan's nature) to Bette. Bette took offense. In 1962, when the two of them were cast in Baby Jane, Joan started to send gifts again which ticked off Bette. Joan was also concerned with her image as a star unlike Bette. Bette was quite annoyed as Joan's falsies used in the beach scene at the end of the film. Also, there are rumors that the Bette kicked Joan during the filming of the scene where Blanche attempts to call Dr. Shelby to the house. This caused Joan to be injured. In retaliation, Joan supposedly wore a lead apron underneath her costume for the filming of the scene where Baby Jane has to hurry Blanche to the car after offing Elvira the Maid. This caused Bette to sprain her back. They were slated to do another film together Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte. Joan backed out the project reportedly for having pneumonia. For the Oscars in 1962, Bette was nominated for Baby Jane in the Best Actress category. Joan was not nominated. Joan began a campaign to ask the other nominees to accept the award at the ceremony on the nominee's behalf if she could not attend the ceremony. Anne Bancroft won the Oscar and Joan accepted for Anne who was not able to go. This did annoy Bette. I'm not sure if they 'hated' each other or if they just were peeved. ****What happened to Baby Jane was just on a channel with some host, he was apparently on the set while it was filming and he said they didn't hate each other. They were cordial to each other. The reason this rumor of them hating each other came out was because Crawford was said to start romances with her directors and as such Davis was suspicious of her.****
