A centurion was a warrior who had one hundred men under his command. They fought for the Roman empire, and were chosen for their skill in combat, as well as leadership ability. Once a man became a centurion, he would be one until his death. Whereas a regular soldier could retire, a centurion had no such option. A centurion was always in the front, leading his troops to battle; the most dangerous place to be on the battlefield. Urban Dictionary

100 shots in 100 minutes. In Ancient Rome, the Centurions were the rough equivalent of junior officers. Most commonly they commanded a 'cohort' of legionairres, which was 80-100 individuals. In battle, centurions could be easily distinguished by the transverse crest of horsehair or feathers, dyed red, upon their helmet. Centurions are some of the best examples of leaders in history. They, like many great men, lead from the front; whatever the men under the centurion's command were doing, the centurion was doing it right there with them, whether that be chopping down logs for fortifications or fighting and dying. As such, centurions had a much higher mortality rate than officers in other armies - but only a few empires have come close to matching the size of Rome. Although Rome in the west dissolved, the centurions continued through the Byzantine Empire in the east, in this case renamed 'kentarch'. Same thing pretty much. Urban Dictionary
