Paying Tribute to America's Defenders
I will never quit. I persevere and thrive on adversity. My Nation expects me to be physically harder and mentally stronger than my enemies. If knocked down, I will get back up, every time. I will draw on every remaining ounce of strength to protect my teammates and to accomplish our mission. I am never out of the fight.
"We must remain strong, and we must fight back. We must fight our terrorist enemies today and deter potential future adversaries through strength and preparedness." -- Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff, US Navy
