Answer:

infant

Explanation:

The English word infantry, which refers today to certain soldiers, is closely related to another English word infant that means baby.

Both words derive from Latin infantem meaning "young child, babe in arms". Infantry means "foot soldiers, force composed of those too inexperienced to be cavalry", so infantrymen were often young soldiers.
