This is truly a special time of year with many religions and cultures celebrating ac- cording to the dictates of their own beliefs and conscience. Each of you is standing tall on the frontlines of this global struggle to ensure this basic freedom is not lost. One last time At the birth of our nation, Soldiers in our Former Secretary of Defense visits LSA Anaconda Army spent a bitterly cold holiday season in the fields of Valley Forge. At that moment, our young nation’s prospects looked bleak. It would have been easy for the Soldiers of our young Army to fold up their tents and give up the dream of liberty. Those Soldiers did not quit—just as you will never quit. I truly believe today’s Soldiers, Sailors, Air- men, Marines and our civilian partners stand as sentinels, fighting to guarantee the same foundation of fundamental beliefs upon which our nation was built. Life, liberty, equality, the pursuit of happiness are not just notes in a his- tory book, they are the foundation of what we hold dear and what we fight to defend. I could not be more proud of our Soldiers, our Army, our nation’s military and the fami- lies back home who support us and enable us you to execute our mission.
