When requested by the announcer, please stand in the arrival honors, marching on with the colors, the national anthem, and the invocation. As a reminder, the military gas shall remain covered throughout the entire graduation ceremony. And ladies and gentlemen, one final note, as befitting of the importance of this occasion, our ceremony is conducted in a formal manner. However, we do encourage you to participate in today's graduation ceremony by letting your applause show these sailors just how proud of them you are. Once again, welcome aboard. The main standing for the honor, Recruit Training Command, the past two decades to see services have lived up to this nation's oath that we will never forget the final new orders changed. So we, as the passengers of the last plane, refuse to be helpless victims of weapons against our own country. The fighting spirit of America has well opened us. We thank you for the legacy that they have left. The past two decades, this country has nurtured and fostered those men and women who are graduating today to face the watch against our enemies so their loved ones can sleep in safety at night. For two decades, our RDCs have spilled the watch, made the sacrifice, and kept their oath. This is now its newest generation so we're ready to continue that watch that's kept our country free not only for the past 20 years, but for more than 200. I suspect, Lord, I ask that you applause them as they go forward from the stage. Use the success as a boot camp to inspire our confidence. Let them know that those who have gone before them will need to be already capable and trained to face the challenges that are coming. As they face old and familiar and formidable enemies, bless them with integrity, ingenuity, creativity, and the grit to overcome the obstacles that they will face. Lord, thank you for the families who have invested in them. Bless them as they send their children to live out this great calling. Bless these sailors with a heart to grow. Let them never be hungry to become something more tomorrow than they were today. Inspire them to lead. Inspire them to seek the challenges of opportunity. But let them not only be leaders in this institution, but leaders in their communities and their families. Wherever they go, let their impact be such that everyone will know that the sailor has been amongst us. We pray these things in your great and precious name. Amen. Wait a minute. This morning we also reflect the tragic events in September 11, 2001. In the United States armed forces retreating companies to secure American supplies and simply end of the duty day. It provides an opportunity for honoring the flag, taking pride in rendering honors, proper respect, and recognizing freedom in which it stands. At the ceremony of retreat, the flag is lowered, folded into a triangle hole, with the red white stripes, folded into the blue, like the white of the day that initiated the darkness of the night. It is kept under watch throughout the night as a true view of our nation's honored day. The next morning, as this brought out as a ceremonial referee, singled at the start of a duty day, and runs as a hawk. It's the symbol of our belief in resurrection as a hawk. The flag-pulling ceremony represents the same religious and religious religious experience of our country was originally founded. The portion of the flag, during honor, as this enchanted blue-containing star, represents the states of the veterans of all generations who served in uniform. It can't reveal the blue that just left to right. It is converted, contrary to all, on a custom of the veteran who served our country in uniform and gave the open sacrifice and defense for our freedoms. But the first poll, in honor of the 13 official holidays, and our oral mothers who founded this foundation, we salute you. The second poll, to the men and women in the war of independence, we salute you. The third poll, to the men and women in the war of 1812, to preserve our freedom, we salute you. But the fourth poll, to the brave soldiers on both sides of the North and South, to salute you. But the fifth poll, to those who shed blood in the name of the vote and freedom in the great war, we salute you. The sixth poll, for those who have gone before us to die in the terrible battles of Pearl Harbor, may wait for the battle of Olch, Eugene, or Normandy, and Berlin. We salute you. The seventh poll, to the men and women in the first green division. When we are in action, but the chosen ones of our country to save their attack and the lives of their fellow Marines, we salute you. The eighth poll, to the brave men and women in the war of forces who died in the field of Vietnam. Through the days of the long forever and the hell of the fall, we salute you. The ninth poll, for those who lost their lives and suffered by the horrific, unspeakable tears in September 11th, and for those who continue to pay the sacrifice during the most month of November, we salute you. The tenth poll, for our emergency response personnel, on-site first responders, police, firefighters, paramedics, doctors, and nurses, we salute you. The 11th poll, to God, our parents and our friends who we love and understand, we salute you. The 12th poll, to the men and women of our armed forces, the arsenal of democracy and the amber freedom, we salute you. The 13th poll, to freedom, because without freedom, there is no honor. And on this week out, as long as this flag flies, we salute you. When the flag is finally opened, the stars are upwards, reminding us of our nation's motto, and in God we trust. It takes all the parents of the Triad, reminding us of the soldiers who served under the General Board for Washington, and the sailors and marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones, and those who will follow the armed forces of the United States, preserving all of our rights and privileges and freedoms that we enjoy today. On September 11th, the United States suffered the deadliest terror attack in the whole of history, and the world was forever changed. Four planes were used as weapons of terror, and carried out suicide tests on targets including the World Trade Center in New York City, depending on the disaster of Washington, D.C., and the four planes that crashed in the field and succinct to it. Almost 3,000 people were killed, and more than 6,000 were injured, including more than 4,000 law enforcement fire drivers. Preceding the flag this morning, it's also scary to hear, more should show up, please come forward. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the 876, the newest and sharpest savers of the United States game. A lot of individual workers and divisions to promote teamwork, attention to detail, and to divisions performing above standards, and about the training of our award of recognition flags and flags of missionaries, academic achievement, military drill, compartmental needs, applications, and physical fitness. These flags and carriers is a symbol of the division's success. Each flag and a piece of the savers individually and as teams and members of the savers in all of the missionaries. At the division's excelent degree of training, all of the national battle efficiency, honor division recognition, and those who are worth the battle need honor flags and the particulary of achievement.

You received the awful oaths for Governor Indiana to serve. Actors seem to know that all relations such as the interactive investments of Indiana's outbound program were not welcome until they welcomed the international service of the governor. He previously served as the policy chairman of the Republican Governor's Association and prior to his election, the governor in 2016 served as the Indiana and six of you heard from the county governor. Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in a warm appreciation and a big welcome to Governor Eric O'Rourke. One and all, and congratulations, sailors. Graduates, you have now completed a major milestone on a lifelong airman that, relatively speaking, you Americans have, proving that you're worthy of wearing that uniform, the very uniform that projects our land of liberty's commitment to freedom, to our freedom, and our loving way of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in a world that is constantly challenged by those who see other lives. On March 15th, 1991, at 1400, I stood where you stand now. I stood tension and gray dress as I was thinking about what was coming next. Where do I go now? As a recruit, my life was pushed as old in Company 072. I was pushed and pulled as in, I did my picture of push-ups in the snow and I had my wisdom be pulled here that one day I would be back as the governor of Indiana. Confessed, I did not fit into that uniform today. But most importantly, it's what I, anything was possible. And as proud as I was on that day, I am even proud, first being in fact, with pride, seeing your eyes, knowing what is in front of you. I think about how I understood the importance of the moment and what I learned here over these last eight to 10 weeks. Lessons like character and sacrifice and accomplishment of teamwork, integrity of your unit and what it meant to the end result of those lessons that play out in all of our daily lives yet today. And that is why I am so optimistic. So it's both personal and professional, pride and privilege to be able to hear today on your day and salute you, knowing that you will carry forward this legacy of an elite full steam ahead, maybe a force for good and the responsibility that comes with it. As a history subject, I can't help but know it's no coincidence that our nation earned and maintained our independence only after the USA was founded. And now fast forward to your home as your family and friends and loved ones and the veterans that you have earned their respect and held on grateful that you are carrying on this tradition of excellence and service that has indeed defined our name for nearly two and a half centuries. I have no doubt you are trained and you are ready to make your own model, knowing whatever you give and maybe you will be in receipt 10 fold. You earn something so special. Evidence by the fact that so many good and honorable Americans have been there just wondering if they'll ever make a meaningful difference. Men and women, you will never have that wonder. You have done it and you are on your way to doing it again and again and again. In the days ahead, great things will be after you. Some we know, some we don't yet. And I know you will continue to step up and answer that call. Your cause is just, your mission is noble. So as you pack your CVAC or walk across the street to your next school and hone your talents that you will learn over the past weeks here, as you pursue your passion, please know on behalf of 6.8 million patriotic teachers, we are grateful for you. We can congratulate you and your families and your support network for your service and sacrifice today and all the days that come. I trust in the good Lord above and I trust in every one of you. My beautiful bride and I will put you on our service. We will pray that you have fair wins and following seats, successful missions and always return home safely. God bless you all, our name, and may God continue to bless the United States of America. Amen.
