Female reenactors as soldiers?

[Medicus matt]

I am kind of stuck here in America for the moment but if anyone can check on this in England I would greatly appreciate it!!!

Check on what? It's fairly old news. I've got the site report from Brougham and can post images of the finds if you're interested but the facts are pretty much as stated (if you can pick them out from the hyperbole). The 'scabbard remains' are bone sliders. That's it. No sword remains. So, whilst it's possible to speculate that these two women had a military role in a cavalry unit, it's not proof of anything much.
