Years: 339BCE - 339BCE
Roman general Publius Decius Mus wittingly sacrifices himself in a futile attack against the rebel Latin forces at the 339 Battle of Vesuvius in a storied incident that occurs in one of the first major battles of the so-called Latin War.
Consequently, his embattled co-general, Titus Manlius (later surnamed Imperiosus Torquatus), is able to safely withdraw with the bulk of the Roman army.
