Murphy told the U.S. Army Reserve soldiers, officers, and guests at the ball, the Army is “America’s varsity team” and needs to be ready at a moment’s notice. And the U.S. Army Reserve is an integral part of the team. When the President or these governors ask us to respond, we can’t say, ‘I’m sorry.’ We’ve got to be ready to go. We’ve got be ready to go tonight. That’s why readiness is so important,” Murphy said. (U.S. Army photo by Timothy L. Hale) (Released)
