Shouldn't this be called "''Disaster'' of the Gladden Fields"? That's what the chapter in Unfinished Tales is called, and all descriptions point towards this being more of a massacre than a straight-up battle.

The article describes three survivors of the ambush, but I only count two. --Ted C 11:23, 7 November 2006 (EST)

"one of them was Isildur's squire Ohtar, who along with his companion brought the shards of Narsil to Rivendell."
I think the second one is the "companion" of the squire. --Hyarion 11:36, 7 November 2006 (EST)
The third survivor was Estelmo,he was Elendur's esquire.you can find this information in the Unfinished Tales.
