Legio Xvii: Battle of the Danube
“As Calvus led his men out of Bad Tolz, Tribune Servilius stood by the gate. As Calvus rode by, he shouted out, “Good luck Legate; may the gods be with you.” Calvus stared at Servilius as he rode by; his face unchanged; his mouth moved to speak, but nothing came out.
