Miliary Drills
#6
There’s a great manual here;

http://www.romanarmy.net/pdf/Members%20H...Manual.pdf

Parade drill is controversial. 

Some groups refuse to do it in the absence of manuals or other evidence, however I find it hard to believe that they could do their complex battlefield manoeuvres without basic and advanced parade groups undo drill and practice.

People walking together for a long period naturally fall into step and rhythm. I very much doubt that the legions wouldn’t have taken advantage of that tendency to help with timing of battlefield manoeuvres. Historically accurate? I can’t prove it. Human nature? That hasn’t changed significantly in 2000 years...
