 * Life as a Roman Soldier!*



To this day... Roman soldiers have inspored us to have our own soldiers. They fight for or freedom and rights. They are different then back then though. We have other uniforms that are just cloth. We get badges for good things we do! We also have different weapons. we use more guns than knives and swords. We still got that inspiration from the Romans though!
