Re: A Question about Strider

In the Tale of Years 2957-80 it tells how &quot;[Aragorn]served in disguise both Thengel of Rohan and Ecthelion II of Gondor.&quot; Earlier in Appendix A The Stewards it exlpains how he came to Gondor from Rohan where he had served king Thengel... &quot;Thorongil men called him in Gondor, the Eagle of the Star.&quot;

Though Aragorn might well have served Thengel under the same alias, the text does not specify that he did.
