I was curious about logistics in the ancient Roman world. How many logistics people does it take to feed/equip one Roman soldier? During say, the Pre-Marian 2nd Punic War, post-Marian during Caesar's time, and Imperial Era during Trajan's time?
Does a Roman Legion (4000-5000 legionaries) + Auxiliary unit already include logistics personnel in their unit? Or does this only count fighting men and the logistical people weren't counted as a part of the legion?
More can always be said, but here are some previous threads about this topic:
/u/Celebreth on What was staff work like for the Roman Legions? Was there a central military bureaucracy?
/u/Tiako on How did the Romans manage to control such a big, expensive, army?
