Wiktor z Agaunum
Feast: 22 September (not on the universal Roman calendar; kept in the Roman Martyrology or local calendars)
Who they were
Victor appears in the story of the Theban Legion, the Christian soldiers put to death near Agaunum (St Maurice-en-Valais) for refusing to take part in sacrifices. He was a veteran who came upon the soldiers sharing out the spoils of the slain legion and refused to join them.
When he said he was a Christian too, he was killed on the spot. The Roman Martyrology names him with the Theban martyrs on 22 September.
The miracles
There was never a formal cause: he has been honoured as a saint since before the Church's formal processes began.
Why that counted as sanctity
A veteran soldier killed at Agaunum with the martyrs of the Theban Legion.
