The Benefits of Armor

I do not know why armor has been laid aside for the for nothing is either so useful or ornamental. The Romans conquered all peoples by their discipline in the measure that it became corrupted. Their success decreased when the emperor gration permitted the legions to quit their kirasses and helmets because the soldiers complained they were too heavy. It's worrisome to carry a queer ass and a trail pike and trail a pike half a century to use it a single day. But as soon as discipline is neglected in a nation, as soon as comfort becomes an aim, it needs no inspiration to fratel that ruin is near.
