 We have to work harder every day and with each generation we have to get better if we're going to stay where we are as the world's greatest Navy. I think this year the biggest accomplishment of the Navy has been to persevere through a COVID environment to continue to recruit, train and prepare sailors for deployment on our ships. We are an expeditionary force by nature and the ability for the Navy to continue operations despite the COVID environment has been amazing. I actually did the 1998-99 deployment on Carl Vinson in the same timeframe we left in November and came back at the end of May. And being out here for my last opportunity to holiday in uniform, I thought it was kind of a full circle moment for me. The Carl Vinson has contributed to accomplishments during this year, especially those that I spoke to, you persevered through COVID. You managed to prepare your ship and do the training, the integrated training as well as the individual unit training all safely and get to a point where you were prepared to deploy and conduct combat operations if called upon. And in COVID that has been no easy feat to do. It's been amazing to see what the ship has done and as you've worked your way into the deployment all the good work that you've already done so far projecting presence out here in the Far East. I'm very grateful to be on board Carl Vinson today for Thanksgiving representing the C&O and a grateful Navy that Carl Vinson is out here taking their turn on the line defending our nation so that we can enjoy the things that we enjoy on Thanksgiving.
