He began serving in the Roman Imperial Army at the age of 15, but after he was baptized his Faith prevented him from fighting, so he was discharged and began his spiritual journey, later becoming Bishop of Tours. One of his more famous legends was told that Martin once came upon a beggar in the cold, and tore up half of his cloak, giving one to the beggar.
