Shipmates, as we gather with family and friends 
to celebrate the holiday season,

00:06.982 --> 00:10.902
Captain Yates and I want to take a moment 
to express our gratitude for each and every one of you.

00:11.296 --> 00:14.856
Your dedication, hard work, 
and commitment to our mission is truly remarkable.

00:15.340 --> 00:20.440
Thanks, CMC. 
In the Intelligence Community, we often work behind the scenes.

00:20.561 --> 00:28.021
But we want you to know that your contributions 
are making a real difference in protecting our nation and our way of life.

00:28.189 --> 00:31.688
This Thanksgiving, we hope that you 
take some time to relax and recharge.

00:31.814 --> 00:34.955
We also hope that you take a moment 
to thank the Shipmates who will stand watch

00:35.054 --> 00:39.166
at home and abroad during the holidays 
and who will undoubtedly be missing their loved ones.

00:39.679 --> 00:45.319
On behalf of the leadership team, 
we want to say thank you to you and your families.

00:45.447 --> 00:50.597
Thank you for your service , your sacrifice, 
and your unwavering commitment to our mission.

00:50.626 --> 00:54.656
We are honored to serve alongside 
such a talented and dedicated team.

00:55.077 --> 00:56.256
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

00:56.775 --> 00:58.495
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

00:58.730 --> 01:04.120
