The removal of the breastplates and helmets contributed to their military weakening. It weaken them because the removal of it promote laziness and  negligence of training and the such. It also removes the protection against ranged weapons which caused many casualties. Also the armor promoted the stand and fight stance since they can't run in heavy armor,  but the removal remove the physiological method and caused them to run away which caused fronts to fail. All these point to the military failing to protect Rome. 

Answer: The change of breastplates and helmets exposed the chest and head of foot soldiers of Rome. This allowed Goths to kill and injure them with arrows.

Explanation: Negligence and laziness of the soldiers made them abandon parade ground drills and also asked the Emperor to prevent them from wearing helmets and breastplates. In the battleground, the troops were exposed to archers due to lack of armour and the troops only thought about running instead of fighting. This in part leads to the decline of Rome.
