The Draft or Conscription.
All free men were supposed to serve in the Roman army. However, just because one was eligible to serve, did not necessarily mean he had to serve. During peacetime, the army generally had enough volunteers to keep its ranks fairly full. When there was trouble, though, more men were needed to be trained and fill the ranks. In these circumstances officials went around drafting young men for a military career.All free men were supposed to serve in the Roman army.
