| Message | We have to dissaree with this, because this way too many otherwise valuable recruits will prefer a cowardist life outside of our military over the national service. Allowing homosexuals in the military will also demoralize their heterosexual comrades, because their mental illness will cause confusion within their ranks. Baski IV von Grauenfels Head of the MMP |
