Roman Soldiers If you were a roman solider this is what will happen to you. If you were in the Romans early army was made up of unpaid and untrained men. You are called in to fight when they were needed and most needed to provide their own weapons. Legionnaires (foot solders) use short swords for stabbing enemies, and javelins for throwing at the enemy for long range uses, they also had a shield and metal armor for protection. Today in our socitey we have an army but the people in our army are paid for there services, also today there are swords and javeline but we use gun and machines to fight in war. We use swords just for movies and reiactingof the roman army and other armies. We use javelines but only in the olimpics.
