Central Command . Ladies and gentlemen ,
please join me in the warm recruit
training command . Welcome to Kenneth .
Mhm . Thanks . It's nice to come
back and have a friend introduced me
first of all , let's give a round of
applause uh to the RTC bang as well as
uh as the choir and the drill team .
That was pretty impressive . Yeah .
Okay , So good morning , distinguished
guests , family members and most
importantly the sailors with Division
257 208 - 9 - 10 and 9 -
six . Let me first acknowledge the most
important fact in today's ceremony that
you came here as volunteers and have
chosen this opportunity to serve our
nation . Precious few are
qualified or even considered military
service in this day and age . And while
opportunity may have a way to , to
colleges of the civilian world . You
have traded this step an important part
of miracle life and it'll be a choice .
You are grateful for in the years to
come today marks the culmination of
basic training which has tested your
fortitude , your resilience and ability
to work as a team under stress and as
you don the Navy ball cap for the first
time , you become part of the
organization forever . But the road
that leads from this place will charge
you more than boot camp . You'll join
the most lethal navy that has ever
sailed the oceans with the solemn duty
to support and defend the constitution
of the United States of America . It's
a demanding one that expects you to
continuously commit to excellence .
Much we learned outside these gates
as you learn your rate driven to ensure
your shipmates can depend upon you in
time of need . The Royal Ladies rear
apple Pop would captured the truism
best When 1896 , he rode
On the strength of one Lincoln cable
dependent dependent the might of the
chain . Who knows without may be
tested to live and embarrassed the
strain . Your parents could not be
more proud . Whatever road led to here ,
they perhaps have some doubt about the
choice you're making . As you picked up
the torch to defend the free world ,
they hear the distant drums far from
our shore where adversaries are
preparing for conflict , building names
and encroaching on liberties of their
natives . Broadcasting propaganda to
deter our commitment to the
international rules based order . It is
a commitment you are ready for
one you've chosen to sacrifice for .
There are many watching the ceremony
from the stands , parents , families ,
recruiters and maybe some friends back
home in attendance virtually . They
will notice that you hold yourself a
little different today . Your head a
little higher walking a little taller ,
that's because you had the courage to
walk the road less traveled and earn a
place of arm . The transformation now
complete . You will soon begin the
adventure of mastering nuclear energy ,
sailing ships and submarines ,
monitoring communications of our
adversaries , flying in our aircraft or
as buds candidates in the cold waters
of Coronado . You will
deploy time and again to deliver the
ford president . Our president depends
upon to ensure freedom of the seas ,
reassure allies and partners and hold
the enemy at risk in their backyard .
Not Adams . Many will sleep easy at
night because you have the watch and
parents . You can sleep easy knowing
that chiefs and officers entrusted to
their care will have their back along
the way . Having raised these young
men and women with integrity grid , you
have lent them to our nation as part of
our native family . Their growth
success and well being will ensure our
native success sailors . I know you'll
likely forget what I said today or even
who I was . It's okay and expected .
But you'll never forget the moment
you'll embrace these with your loved
ones . After the ceremony will take a
quick photo . It will remain on your
phone for years to come and line in
your racket night . Thousands of miles
from home . You'll likely swipe back .
Months or years to find this moment in
the camera room , you'll pause
but not too long before turning on the
light . Getting some sleep before you
prepare for the next watch I can see is
hard but you'll not be alone .
Never forget that your family is proud
of me . But those photos remind you of
that fact . Hard days will come but
you'll learn to lean on one another and
forge friendships that will turn
shipmates into family . And
your I am thankful for the
privilege to be here today . Be men and
women of integrity , demonstrate
courage . The course of world history
depends upon it again .
Congratulations today . You can say
with pride , I am a United
States . Maybe sailor . Thank you .
