Will, the only charge I recall from the book by Gondorean cavalry was the sally out to save the rearguard lead by Faramir, just as the orcs are chasing the defenders of Osgiliath and the Rammas Echor back to Minas Tirith. I dont think there is another but I would be happy to be proven wrong.

You are dead right about Merry. You cant attack a Nazgul without getting hurt and Merry was. He didnt make the black gate. Pippin is there and says how he needs to equal Merry so stabs one of those Olog Hai trolls.

Eowyn had her arm broken in the fight with the Witch King, but both her and Merry were overtaken by a sort of despair type bug which needed longer to heal than any physical hurts. It is in the houses of healing that Faramir sees Eowyn, sees that she is a troubled heroic soul and falls in love with her.
