To quote noted historian and author Stephen Dando Collins, ‘Unquestionably the most renowned legion in its day was the 10th -- Legio X. In fact, It was described as “world famous’ when it arrived to join the Judean offensive of 67 AD. Personally raised by Caesar, the 10th Legion is on record as taking the leading role in all his battles, from a bloody initiation in Spain to the conquest of Gaul, the invasion of Britain and the battles of the Civil War against Pompey the Great that eventually made Caesar Dictator of Rome. The 10th marched for Marc Anthony and for Augustus. It whipped the Parthians under Corbulo; it squashed the Jewish Revolt for Vespasian; and it took the temple at Jerusalem for Titus. It conquered Masada.
