Excerceo Milites

A Rainy March

Our new Legionaire Petros Alexandros. Our first genuine greek!
Former Senior Sergeant of the Danish Army – the perfect skills for exercising lazy roman legionaires!

Under command of Optio Decimus Albius, new Legionaire Tiberius Antoninus on march. Our first genuine Roman! in our very germanic cohort (Danes, Germans, Copenhageners and now Italians and Greeks!). And Yes... the helmet is all wrong, but he has a big head. An authentic helmet is beeing produced for him.



I Bededagene var medlemmer af Cohors II samlet til træningsweekend i Hjemsted Oldtidspark. Da der blæste en kvart pelikan, var jernaldergården et oplagt sted for excersits. Vi arbejder intensivt for at være klar til den 1. juni, hvor vi skal præsentere vores kunnen for Hendes Majestæt Dronningen i forbindelse med indvielsen af det nye besøgscenter på Sagnlandet Lejre.

Last weekend a part of Cohors II was assembled for excercise at Hjemsted Ironagepark. We are getting ready to show our efforts for Her Majesty the Queen of Denmark on a opening ceremony at Lejre – Land of Legends, the first of June.
