| Message | Actually, the recent threat from our northern neighbours is calling for a well trained, well equiped, mobile army, something that conscripts never truly become. |
| Date | 01:25:28, January 04, 2006 CET | From | National Imperial Hobrazian Front | To | Debating the Peacetime Conscription Act of 2165 |
| Message | Agreed. Professional armies are much more capable than draftees. |

| Message | "But the recent threat from our northern neighbours is calling for this law to be kept unchanged!" Currently there is no threat from any nation so this is not needed. |
