The Loyal Dogs
A party of well-armed Government men and agents. Apart from a small number of Royal household troops, there was no standing army at this time. The Crown contracted out foreign wars and internal security alike to the personal retinues of loyal magnates, and to militias raised by county Sheriffs. Many English soldiers gained experience fighting in the Protestant cause in the Wars of Religion in France, the Low Countries and Ireland. In the opening years of the C17th, veterans of these wars often found gainful employment as officers, agents and guards in the private armies of leading English noblemen, enforcing the Crown’s writ.
