I found a copy of this the last time I went to the museum at Caerleon (free entry and some seriously good exhibits - and as many photographs as you'd like to take!)
Chapter 6 is particularly interesting to me and it includes an appendix which lists officers' names. Having seen Claudius Cupitus' century stone in the museum, I get a great feeling of characterisation/humanisation to then find a superb silver badge/brooch/award in the museum at Vindolanda given to Quintus Sollinus of the century of Cupitus.
I always assume it's the same Cupitus; so if you know different may I please ask you to keep it to yourselves and not burst my bubble :wink:

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!
