Description[?]:
| While working as Foreign Affairs Minister, I noticed that Lodamun is not being taken seriously in the international community. While the Image Cleansing Bill should be furthered by the current Head of Foreign Affairs, I would like to head a movement to strengthen Lodamun's new full-time military. I will be working with the SLP's expert on Defence, Mr. Arwen O'Barra to further this cause. The following Articles are possible militaristic avenues for which Lodamun can expand. ~ Godfrey Grant SLP Representative for Foreign Affairs |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We do not want persons of specific religions being allowed in the military. Before you know it, we have some Hosian coup or Hosian mutiny or something, then we just have more of them running around with guns. We also believe that civilian national service should be kept as an option, and not only military service. -- Andre Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG, Vice President of Lodamun |
