Answer:

Loss of lives

Explanation:

The battle of La Drang was the battle between the United States Army and the Peoples Army of Vietnam in 1965. The significance of the battle was that it was the first major battle between the U.S and North Vietnamese forces. Since world war two the battle of La Drang became the most intense and savagely fought ground actions in America's war history. The war signified that the North Vietnamese were ready to fight major battles by engaging the American troops through physical combat. The PAV preferred combat war so that the U.S artillery and air force could be used. The war resulted in the loss of over 150 men of the 1st cavalry troops, while half of the company C troops died. It is estimated that 834 North Vietnamese soldiers were killed with another 1,000 communist soldiers.

Which of these is not something soldiers were expected to do when they were not fighting or migrating to another location?

seraphim [82]

A.) Improving Roman infrastructures.

When they were moving to another location Roman soldiers did not have to improve on other Roman infrastructures they came upon along the way, because the building of the infrastructures was not organized by the Roman troops, more so they were organized by an architect and the architect's workers.

The reason I also chose A was because the Roman troops traveled in their groups and whenever they were injured it was up to them to man the camp hospitals to heal the wounded. Also recruiting more soldiers along the way was also very helpful to the Roman legion and allowed a much broader amount of soldiers that could be used for taking over land. Not to mention that soldiers (traveling strictly inside their troops) were responsible for feeding themselves (what I'm saying is that the troops were responsible for cooking and feeding each other I just used "themselves" as the word to describe it).

Since Roman soldiers traveled in groups they did not (I'm assuming here I don't know for sure) take women or other people along with them and they only took the amount of soldiers that were assigned by their higher ups. In other words Roman soldiers were really only expected to do as they were ordered to (in modern times any disobedience to what they were ordered to do would have resulted in them having it put on a disaplinary record, but they did not do that sort of thing during Roman times meaning that they punished the soldiers in ways that I don't factually now about). Basically the key importance in the Roman soldier was to carry out the order he received and complete the order quickly and efficiently. However, they did recruit soldiers along the way as they were instructed and that was to help them benefit for taking over land. The commanding officer was the one who told the Roman soldiers what to do when they were traveling (simple tasks, not the task assigned by the current ruler) and the soldiers were expected to complete it. A few of the tasks assigned by the commanding officer could have been to cook, preform healing measures, and recruit more soldiers.

Hope this helps.
