Hmm....it seems I stand corrected. It's an odd pose for an infantryman. Earlier I could swear he was carrying a hexigonal shield in the first photo but it's probably rectangular. He also appears to be a bit bigger than the Auxiliary cavalryman in the foreground which breaks the rules of perspective. This isn't the first time I noticed this flaw in Roman art though. Anyway, thanks for catching my mistake, Dr. Bishop.
