I guess I've referred to the article of Antike Welt Issue 3/2006 "In guten wie in schlechten Zeiten - Frauen und das römische Militär - eine schwierige Beziehung?" in this other thread dealing with this topic.
For sure is that Roman women did not serve as legionaries, but they were part of the life in a camp e.g. as wives to legionaries (in later Imperial times), washwomen, alewives, cooks and seamstresses.
