 For 12 years of combat, the total Army has answered the nation's call, proving ready and resilient. Today the Army is adapting to meet the needs of the nation, becoming globally responsive with tailorable and scalable forces that can operate in unstable, shifting environments. The Army is also regionally engaged, aligned to conduct operational deployments, build partner relations and lead joint exercises. As our Army evolves, leadership and professionalism remain our Army's bedrock and the foundation of our future. Our leaders are highly trained and adaptive, ready for complex operating environments. Leaders are the Army's strength, and they must sustain our advantage. The Army remains focused on our Army profession and the responsibilities that come with the uniform. Soldiers are our nation's ambassadors. They represent the United States of America worldwide with their moral and ethical values. Our most advanced weapon is still the professional American soldier, who continues to serve wherever called the Premier Volunteer Army, ready then, ready now. We are the world's best Army. We are Army Strong.
