Need help with Latin translation
#1
Any Latin scholars out there who could assist with a translation of a tombstone?

CIL 05, 08773 = ILCV 00457a-b = D 02803
Arca{m} Vassioni camped(octoris) / numeri Bata(v)or(um) sen(iorum) quem se{e}pe/livit coniuxs(!) Vandacca q(ui) vixit cum / [e]o(!) ann(os) XXII milit(avit) ann(os) XXXV feret a/pud se ann(os) LX si quis eam arcam vo/luerit movere virib(us) fisci dabit sol(idos) XXV

I have got this far.. but it doesn't read very well!

Here is the coffin of Vassionis drill instructor of the Senior Numerus of Batavians. whom ..... to put together .... to live when to go yearly producing 22 soldiers and yearly produced 35.......according to himself produced 40 if you wish anyone.... this coffin........ to move green(?) pay 25 whole solidus

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

regards,
