I am as new as they get here. Still wet behind the keyboard. I have been fascinated with Roman civilization since looking at the pictures in our family Bible as a child. My family is originally from Italy, and I have always felt a connection to that time and place. I am a retired police officer, husband, father of 4 sons, and voracious reader. One of my hobbies is marathon running (so far 27 completed). I have run the "original" Athens route, and have run the Rome (Italy) Marathon as well. I will be running it again in March 2012. I'm not fast, but I am persistent.
I hope to learn more about Roman civilization, military equipment, and other perspectives. Thanks for the opportunity!
