Gentlemen
Please excuse my ignorance, but are the soldiers in the picture are actually the authentic reconstruction of a Roman unit?

First, anyone with a decent backround in roman reenacting/history would surely recognize that picture was posted with a bit of tongue in cheek. Also the text under it stating (another joke) would probably give it away as well. hock:

Because they actually look more like something we would see on a hollywood big screen. To make matters worse, the first fellow in line has his helmet strap undone,....something that would never been allowed in a real Roman unit.

A "real" roman unit? I didn't know you had a time machine, or are you comparing them to your own group? :? The possibility of soldiers on the march with helmet straps undone is entirely feasible. Real or modern.
