Hehe, I know this one!
That was the winter that the wolves crossed the river and a great battle was fought to drive them off. That was the very last battle to have occurred there until the Scourging of the Shire and the battle of that time.

Okay I know the three Hebrew children were actually Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego from the third chapter of Daniel.
Well, I can't find my copy of the Return of the King at the moment, but I'm thinking that Shagrat was one of the orcs in the tower of Cirith Ungol. So I am assuming that Samwise Gamgee had the immense honor of slaying the villainous Shagrat.
