Caesar refers to Germanic cavalry as being a formation interspersed with infantry, who would charge with the cavalry. Can anyone give me a good explanation of how this was useful? After the cavalry had hit an enemy formation the light infantry came in an engaged in a stand-up fight, or did he simply mean the German cavalry had something akin to pages or retainers?
