Well, in the Principate I understand that recruitment started with a physical examination by a doctor. Granted, medical technology wasn't quite what we have today, but I'm guessing most doctors could tell a girl from a boy.
If she gets past that, first day after training, everyone hits the bathhouse. Naked. "There's something different about that new kid, can't quite put my finger on it, hmmm...."
Given that, it's no wonder the accounts of women fighting in the Roman army disguised as men are so few! Sorry about that!
