Padded Jack

Item of clothing worn on the medieval battlefields. Comprises 42 layers of wool and linen, soaked in either vinegar, salt water, wine or urine to make them stiff and tough to break through. Often either tied or buckled at the front, hence the modern word "jacket". Mostly foot soldiers and Billmen would wear them, as they were the poorer ranks and would not neccessarily own plate armour.

Livery

A tabard or thin jacket, designed to show a medieval unit's colours in battle. Used to recognise enemy/friendly troops. Would often show the unit Lord/noble's colours.
Liveries would be worn commonly by foot soldiers or Billmen, as they wore padded jacks. Men at arms and knights have been known to wear them, although the armour was often too bulky and would shred the material.

Also the act of hiring out stables to general public.

Bevour, or Bevor

A metal throat guard used by medieval soldiers. The word Bevour/Bevor loosly translates to "Dribble box", as the heat of the breath on the cold metal would cause condensation near the mouth. Comprised of a piece of metal that rested over the neck and onto the chest, with two or three pieces of metal that went up to the nose of the solder, articulating so it could fall down to the throat, mainly for breathing (known as a falling bevor). Also just simply metal all the way up to the nose, without articulation. Some would have a locking pin at the side, to prevent the articulations from dropping during battle.
The soldier flicked his bevor up, dropping the visor on his Sallet to lock them in place.

Gauntlets

Medieval hand protection. Two variations were finger gauntlets, comprised of steel over the top of the hand and individual, articulated plates of steel over the fingers to give movement for sword and Bill. The other variation were Mitts, same steel over the hand, but just one plate or slightly curved steel over the fingers, instead of the articulation. Gloves were worn underneath the metal, for grip on the weapons and general protection.Could be plain, or highly decorated, depending on the period and the fashions of the time.
The soldier slipped his hands into his gauntlets.

Aventrai/Aventray

If anyone knows the correct spelling to this, let me know!

A medieval battle command for Billmen and pikemen. Involves lowering the Bill or pike from the right shoulder, to hold it out in front of you, pointing the metal pikes/bill points at the enemy. Normally issued just before two units come together to fight, but can be issued in advance.
