VFW is one of our nation's finest organizations. You belong to an elite group of Americans.
(APPLAUSE)
You belong to a group of people who've defended America overseas. You fought in places from Normandy to Iwo Jima to Pusan to Kaesan to Kuwait to Somalia, Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq. You brought security to the American people. You brought hope to millions across the world.
As members of this proud organization, you are advocates for the rights of our military veterans, a model of community service, and a strong and important voice for a strong national defense. I thank you for your service. I thank for what you've done for the United States of America.
(APPLAUSE)
I stand before you as a wartime president. I wish I didn't have to say that. But an enemy that attacked us on September the 11th, 2001, declared war on the United States of America, and war is what we're engaged in.
