To sum up, all the data under consideration enabled us to conclude that up to 353, when Constantius II won over Magnentius, the whole Late Roman military forces had only one expeditionary army, that is the Danube, which located and served in Thrace, but, as a result of a civil war between Constantius II and Magnentius this army temporarily stood in two Western regions, we mean Gaul and the Northern Italy.
So, up to 353 all the rest regional armies of Empire were only the frontier troops, they consisted of permanent and immobile frontier garrisons. These garrisons were manned by alae, legions, vexillations and cohorts. We may ascribe to frontier troops the armies of the Rhine, Near East and Illyrian fronts. Respectively, the units of army ofcomitatenses might serve at the Rhine, Near East or Illyrian front only temporarily, on occasion of some military campaign in one of these regions, but their permanent place for billeting was Thrace. To om point of view, an approximate number of this army stayed without serious changes, that is 40 000 men.
