Simply by not enlisting. The Romans had no draft or forced military service. The upper classes served as officers because it was a step up to public recognition and it would help them if they had any political ambitions. Everyone likes a politician with a good military record. The lower classes enlisted because the pay was steady, and the promise of either land or a bonus upon retirement.
