46:46.898 --> 46:48.842
It is a symbol of our nation and a

46:48.842 --> 46:51.009
recognition around the world . We have

46:51.009 --> 46:53.176

46:53.176 --> 46:55.176
way of life . We wear the stars and

46:55.176 --> 46:57.342
stripes proudly on our uniform both at

46:57.342 --> 46:58.787
home and while deployed ,

47:02.239 --> 47:04.419
the red color on the flag symbolizes

47:04.429 --> 47:06.860
the hardiness and valor which each of

47:06.870 --> 47:09.840
you have personal per pers personified

47:09.850 --> 47:11.961
as a soldier and a leader in our army

47:12.010 --> 47:14.260
operating in austere conditions with

47:14.270 --> 47:16.048
limited resources to accomplish

47:16.048 --> 47:18.326
difficult missions and difficult tasks .

47:18.326 --> 47:20.790
The white color refers to the purity

47:20.800 --> 47:23.050
and the in innocence . It's which you

47:23.060 --> 47:25.139
have sought to protect both here at

47:25.149 --> 47:28.300
home and abroad . And the blue color

47:28.310 --> 47:32.100
represents vigilance , perseverance and

47:32.110 --> 47:35.189
justice with each of the , with each of

47:35.199 --> 47:37.739

commissioned officer throughout your

47:41.417 --> 47:43.840
career . I am sure the flag holds

47:43.850 --> 47:46.100
special meaning to each of you as it

47:46.110 --> 47:49.010
does to me , but as it should given

47:58.683 --> 48:00.683
in countless soldiers that you have

48:00.683 --> 48:04.020
