	In the field in a single rank.		Merlinia in her natural environment.
	"Marching up and down the square."		The Kiddy Cohort!
	Testudo of 16 men.		Ian Hanna and Olivia Amt.
	Inspection time!  This could be bad, sports fans...		The Fashion Show!  In the shadows at left is "The Shadowy Dr. E.", Emilie Amt.  Also SJ Allen and her son Giles.
	Legionaries gearing up.		Two senators head off to work.
	Paul Montello of Legio XI Claudia, Atlanta, Georgia.		The ladies in the Fashion Show seem to be having a good time.

	Olympics!  In the Armor Race, the contestants reach the turning post, with Marcus Posidonius in the lead.		Daniel and Carolyn Dodenhoff surrounded by their "friends".
	Coming out of the turn, Quintus viciously runs a couple friends off the road!		Enraged by high prices, the troops storm the merchant stalls!
