Salve,
Thank you for all the responses. The subarmalis may be what I had ran across previously. I'm going to do more checking on that.
Britannicus that helm is brilliant~ I'll have to check and see about getting one made.
Pancuius the outside of the shield is hosing covered with duct tape. Some people use rawhide but I'm not yet adept in working with that yet. I've since covered it with black duct tape to try and make the silver not stand out so much.
Again, my thanks for the links and info. I have a direction to move forward to make things more authentic.
Do the Legio groups fight in wars? Are there Legio events with camping? Any renactment with horses? I have a book by Ann Hyland on the Roman cavalry and am trying to learn as much as I can about Roman horses and the war tactics used with them.
My horse isn't exacty close to Roman in nature - Solon is a draft horse, about 2300 lbs. But what I'd like to be able to do is recreate some fo the drills that the cavalry used to perform for the Emperor's.
