An invalided soldier would receive a missio causaria, basically a premature honourable discharge. I'm not sure whether we have any decent evidence for this, but it is usually assumed that he would receive a discharge premium (land or money) and take his savings along. I don't thionk the Roman state ever paid pensions.
