“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”
May we always live worthy of their sacrifice, honor their memory, and never forget the brave Americans who paid the ultimate price.

On #ArmedForcesDay, we honor the Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen, Guardians, Coast Guardsmen, and civilians who make up our Joint Force.
Across every Service, domain, and mission, they stand ready to defend the Nation, support our Allies and partners, and meet the challenges of a complex world. Their service, and the families who stand beside them, are the foundation of our strength.
America’s strength starts with its warfighters.
This Military Appreciation Month, we honor the service and sacrifice of the millions of patriots that defend our nation.

.@SECWAR "As a direct gift from the United States to the world, we have established a powerful “Red, White, and Blue Dome” over the Strait.
American destroyers are on station, supported by hundreds of fighter jets, helicopters, drones, and surveillance aircraft providing 24/7 overwatch for peaceful commercial vessel—except Irans, of course.
Which is why our ironclad BLOCKADE remains in full effect—as well."
.@SECWAR "Two U.S. commercial ships, along with American destroyers, have already safely transited the strait—showing the lane is clear.
We know the Iranians are embarrassed by this fact. They said they controlled the strait... THEY DO NOT."
.@SECWAR "President Trump has directed @CENTCOM to restart the free flow of commerce through the Strait of Hormuz under the umbrella of PROJECT FREEDOM.
To be clear, this operation is separate and distinct from Operation Epic Fury.
PROJECT FREEDOM is defensive in nature, focused in scope, and temporary in duration. With one mission: protecting innocent commercial shipping from Iranian aggression."
.@SECWAR "Under the leadership of President Trump – our BUILDER-IN-CHIEF – we are reversing this systematic decay and putting our Defense Industrial Base back on a WARTIME FOOTING."
