The Thin Stripe Tribunes without armor

The Thin Stripe Tribunes were of lower in rank than the broad tripe tribune, and were called the tribuni angusticlavii. These 'officer cadets' were men of equestrian rank who had military experience, and yet had no authority: they were allowed to sit on a court martial but they held no power in battle.
