Good morning and congratulations . 50:17.399 --> 50:19.159 I bring you greetings from our 50:19.159 --> 50:22.320 Commander in Chief , President Donald J . 50:22.639 --> 50:23.639 Trump . 50:31.739 --> 50:33.906 Now most senior leaders wait until the 50:33.906 --> 50:36.017 end to have this discussion , but I'm 50:36.017 --> 50:38.183 just gonna come off the top rope right 50:38.183 --> 50:40.699 now and get this out of the way . For 50:40.699 --> 50:43.780 all those cadets who've committed minor 50:43.780 --> 50:46.560 infractions . or 50:46.560 --> 50:47.860 violations . 50:50.800 --> 50:53.120 Of the regulations of the United States 50:53.120 --> 50:56.040 Military Academy for which ordinary and 50:56.040 --> 50:59.080 special punishment has been imposed or 50:59.080 --> 51:01.780 is being considered . To the core of 51:01.780 --> 51:05.489 cadets . As President Trump might say , 51:05.659 --> 51:07.659 a complete and total pardon . 51:23.639 --> 51:25.528 Man , they must have done a lot . 51:31.760 --> 51:35.080 Well , on a day like today . There's no 51:35.080 --> 51:37.136 better way to start than with a word 51:37.136 --> 51:39.379 from scripture . And on a day as 51:39.379 --> 51:42.379 special as this for the 998 great 51:42.379 --> 51:44.435 Americans of this class , there's no 51:44.435 --> 51:46.768 more fitting verse than from Isaiah 6:8 . 51:48.310 --> 51:50.310 Then I heard the voice of the Lord 51:50.310 --> 51:53.729 saying , Whom shall I send ? And who 51:53.729 --> 51:57.209 will go for us ? And I said , here I 51:57.209 --> 51:59.969 am . Send me . 52:01.600 --> 52:03.600 4 years ago , you raised your right 52:03.600 --> 52:05.656 hand , swore an oath to preserve and 52:05.656 --> 52:07.840 defend the Constitution , and in that 52:07.840 --> 52:10.020 moment , you said to your country , 52:10.639 --> 52:14.409 Send me . And here you are 52:15.370 --> 52:17.259 You survived beast barracks , you 52:17.259 --> 52:19.481 survived the early morning formations , 52:19.481 --> 52:21.648 the Saturday morning inspections , the 52:21.648 --> 52:23.537 academics , the grueling physical 52:23.537 --> 52:26.540 demands . And you beat the dean 52:26.939 --> 52:30.709 multiple times over . You've 52:30.709 --> 52:32.820 proven that you have what it takes to 52:32.820 --> 52:36.350 lead our nation's top 1% , America's 52:36.350 --> 52:39.070 most valued treasure , America's sons 52:39.070 --> 52:41.860 and daughters . The American soldier 52:42.820 --> 52:45.989 And now today we are going to send you . 52:46.909 --> 52:48.798 We're sending you to lead , we're 52:48.798 --> 52:51.389 sending you to forge warriors , and 52:51.389 --> 52:54.290 we're sending you perhaps to war . 52:55.469 --> 52:59.439 And you are ready . The world 52:59.439 --> 53:01.550 today is at a crossroads , just as it 53:01.550 --> 53:03.717 has been for the past 250 years of our 53:03.717 --> 53:05.883 great republic . You are stepping into 53:05.883 --> 53:08.979 the arena at a time when the stakes 53:09.159 --> 53:12.949 could not be higher . But look around 53:12.949 --> 53:16.120 you , and I know you have . There was a 53:16.120 --> 53:18.120 time when professors here would say 53:18.120 --> 53:20.560 much of the history we teach was made 53:20.560 --> 53:24.000 by the people we taught . You walk the 53:24.000 --> 53:27.040 same paths as Grant , MacArthur , and 53:27.040 --> 53:30.780 Eisenhower , and the same exists today 53:31.159 --> 53:34.830 in these ranks . You stand on the 53:34.830 --> 53:37.520 shoulders of giants . The men and women 53:37.520 --> 53:39.840 of this legendary institution who since 53:39.840 --> 53:43.360 1802 have boldly stepped forward and 53:43.360 --> 53:46.120 proclaimed , send me . 53:47.399 --> 53:49.439 Throughout our storied history when 53:49.439 --> 53:52.879 soldiers said , send me . It didn't 53:52.879 --> 53:55.046 matter whether they were well equipped 53:55.370 --> 53:57.770 or poorly equipped . It didn't matter 53:57.770 --> 53:59.992 whether they were stepping into a clear 53:59.992 --> 54:02.159 mission or a vague one , whether there 54:02.159 --> 54:05.790 were clear skies or raining . Send me 54:06.560 --> 54:09.060 was always the determined reply . 54:10.350 --> 54:12.590 Every one of them , just like you , 54:12.850 --> 54:15.017 were called to serve something greater 54:15.017 --> 54:18.129 than themselves . Rich , poor , 54:18.590 --> 54:21.489 country , city , black , 54:21.909 --> 54:25.340 white , it doesn't matter . Send 54:25.919 --> 54:29.300 me . Most of your peers , your friends 54:29.300 --> 54:31.022 from high school who went in a 54:31.022 --> 54:33.360 different direction , who maybe went to 54:33.739 --> 54:37.050 normal colleges . Many don't understand 54:37.050 --> 54:40.969 what you've done . 27 years ago when 54:40.969 --> 54:44.540 I was accepted into West Point . Or at 54:44.540 --> 54:46.151 least that's what I think my 54:46.151 --> 54:48.580 appointment letter said . I'll have to 54:48.580 --> 54:52.350 check the PAO so . I'm just 54:52.350 --> 54:56.050 kidding . 27 years ago . 54:57.060 --> 54:59.171 I didn't fully understand what saying 54:59.171 --> 55:02.949 no meant . Maybe some members of your 55:02.949 --> 55:05.005 own family don't understand either . 55:05.629 --> 55:07.740 Many may not understand why you chose 55:07.740 --> 55:10.590 this path , and frankly , some never 55:10.590 --> 55:13.520 will , but you did . And you know what , 55:13.570 --> 55:16.909 that's OK Because you've chosen to be 55:16.909 --> 55:19.909 different . You set yourself apart . 55:20.760 --> 55:22.919 And somewhere deep inside of you when 55:22.919 --> 55:25.560 you were looking at your future , there 55:25.560 --> 55:28.659 was a question burning in your gut . If 55:28.659 --> 55:31.000 not me , Then who's it going to be ? 55:32.159 --> 55:36.070 And if not now , Then when ? And 55:36.070 --> 55:39.229 your answer was send me . 55:41.139 --> 55:43.909 West Point is set apart . It's not a 55:43.909 --> 55:47.159 normal college or university . Now I 55:47.159 --> 55:48.992 know there have been foolish and 55:48.992 --> 55:50.992 feckless leaders in the recent past 55:50.992 --> 55:53.103 who've tried their hardest to make it 55:53.103 --> 55:56.040 more normal . We saw woke and weak 55:56.040 --> 55:58.360 leaders trying to make West Point look 55:58.360 --> 56:01.239 like woke Princeton . Which happens to 56:01.239 --> 56:04.919 be my long lost and lost alma mater . 56:06.340 --> 56:08.540 They embraced the DEI craze and tried 56:08.540 --> 56:10.596 to introduce diversity and inclusion 56:10.596 --> 56:13.270 studies . And they hired professors who 56:13.270 --> 56:15.830 advocated for anti-American ideologies 56:15.830 --> 56:19.489 right here in these halls . But no 56:19.489 --> 56:22.989 more West Point is set apart . 56:23.389 --> 56:26.989 It's special . It's above politics . 56:28.120 --> 56:31.360 Success here is based on merit . It's 56:31.360 --> 56:34.080 how you perform that matters . This is 56:34.080 --> 56:37.919 the United States Military Academy . 56:49.699 --> 56:52.340 Its sole unflinching mission is to 56:52.340 --> 56:54.507 train young Americans to be leaders of 56:54.507 --> 56:56.800 character in the profession of arms and 56:56.800 --> 56:58.911 committed to a lifetime of service to 56:58.911 --> 57:00.979 our great nation . You know military 57:00.979 --> 57:03.209 history . You understand engineering , 57:03.540 --> 57:05.820 geopolitics , and how to lead troops 57:05.820 --> 57:08.219 under fire . You hold yourselves to a 57:08.219 --> 57:10.820 higher standard . You are fit , not fat . 57:11.889 --> 57:13.030 You are disciplined 57:15.800 --> 57:17.022 I like that section . 57:22.500 --> 57:24.833 They still got a few years , don't they ? 57:26.949 --> 57:28.671 You're fit , not fat , you are 57:28.671 --> 57:30.909 disciplined , not distracted . 57:32.780 --> 57:34.891 Many of you , even in your short time 57:34.891 --> 57:37.002 in uniform , have endured what I call 57:37.002 --> 57:40.689 the slow slide of the US Army . You've 57:40.689 --> 57:42.911 seen standards lowered , you've seen an 57:42.911 --> 57:45.250 obsession with race and gender . You've 57:45.250 --> 57:47.417 seen the watering down of discipline , 57:47.417 --> 57:49.583 codes weakened , and traditions tossed 57:49.583 --> 57:51.306 aside in the name of political 57:51.306 --> 57:53.479 correctness , statues taken down , 57:53.770 --> 57:56.989 paintings placed in the basement . I'm 57:56.989 --> 57:59.719 here to tell you the slow slide here at 57:59.719 --> 58:01.941 West Point and across the United States 58:01.941 --> 58:04.469 Army is over . You 58:06.000 --> 58:08.899 This group represents the snapback . 58:10.050 --> 58:12.272 You , our newest warriors , are soon to 58:12.272 --> 58:14.494 be newly commissioned 2nd lieutenants , 58:14.649 --> 58:17.409 2nd lieutenants will snap it back into 58:17.409 --> 58:20.629 formation . Political leaders with 58:20.969 --> 58:23.969 ideological agendas and weak military 58:23.969 --> 58:26.136 leaders who were just looking to curry 58:26.136 --> 58:28.136 favor for the next star allowed our 58:28.136 --> 58:30.709 cherished army to slide off our true 58:31.090 --> 58:34.810 north . But you , Our warriors will 58:34.810 --> 58:38.050 snap it back . You are the future . 58:39.149 --> 58:41.239 Others may have allowed it to slide 58:41.239 --> 58:45.090 away . You will not You 58:45.090 --> 58:48.729 will restore our army . And I will 58:48.729 --> 58:51.879 empower you to do it . It's 59:00.409 --> 59:02.631 It's really not that difficult . Here's 59:02.631 --> 59:04.853 what we want , not only in the army but 59:04.853 --> 59:07.076 across the joint force . We want high , 59:07.076 --> 59:09.076 uniform , unwavering standards . We 59:09.076 --> 59:11.298 want meticulous discipline , the kind I 59:11.298 --> 59:13.060 see right here . We want true 59:13.060 --> 59:15.179 accountability and we want it all in 59:15.179 --> 59:17.580 service of readiness and lethality . 59:17.699 --> 59:19.366 Readiness means preparation . 59:22.830 --> 59:25.250 It means training , realistic , tough 59:25.590 --> 59:27.701 training . We must train exactly like 59:27.701 --> 59:29.868 we fight and that means real practical 59:29.868 --> 59:31.590 war fighting skills . It means 59:31.590 --> 59:34.550 lethality . Let me be perfectly clear . 59:35.790 --> 59:38.270 You are not an army of one . 59:39.719 --> 59:41.840 And you are certainly not an army of 59:41.840 --> 59:44.280 woke . You are an American army , an 59:44.280 --> 59:46.750 army of warriors . Four years ago , you 59:46.750 --> 59:49.840 raised your right hand and said , Send 59:49.840 --> 59:53.250 me . And today as you join the ranks of 59:53.250 --> 59:55.194 the greatest fighting force in the 59:55.194 --> 59:56.972 history of the world , we stand 59:56.972 --> 01:00:00.699 together as one army . And we say send 01:00:01.060 --> 01:00:04.469 us . We say it not because of our 01:00:04.469 --> 01:00:06.413 differences but because of what we 01:00:06.413 --> 01:00:10.270 share . The single dumbest phrase in 01:00:10.270 --> 01:00:12.909 military history was peddled in our 01:00:12.909 --> 01:00:15.600 army only a few short years ago . 01:00:16.330 --> 01:00:18.330 You've all heard it , maybe in your 01:00:18.330 --> 01:00:21.100 first two years at West Point . Our 01:00:21.100 --> 01:00:23.719 diversity is our strength . 01:00:24.919 --> 01:00:27.030 The single dumbest phrase in military 01:00:27.030 --> 01:00:29.141 history . We had generals saying this 01:00:29.141 --> 01:00:30.975 with a straight face on national 01:00:30.975 --> 01:00:33.197 television . It was absolute nonsense . 01:00:34.129 --> 01:00:36.296 Now these sorts of silly things can be 01:00:36.296 --> 01:00:38.073 laughed at when they occur in a 01:00:38.073 --> 01:00:40.073 civilian lounge or civilian faculty 01:00:40.073 --> 01:00:42.351 lounge or debated in graduate seminars . 01:00:42.969 --> 01:00:44.969 But they cannot be tolerated in our 01:00:44.969 --> 01:00:48.169 formations . These ideas are what get 01:00:48.169 --> 01:00:51.250 people killed . Diversity is not our 01:00:51.250 --> 01:00:55.090 strength . Unity is our 01:00:55.090 --> 01:00:56.090 strength . 01:01:04.060 --> 01:01:07.610 The call is send us , not send he , 01:01:07.899 --> 01:01:11.139 not send she , not send they them . 01:01:13.429 --> 01:01:17.419 It's send us . Our strength 01:01:17.419 --> 01:01:19.641 is our shared purpose . Our strength is 01:01:19.641 --> 01:01:22.159 our oath to the Constitution . It's our 01:01:22.159 --> 01:01:24.399 embrace of the army values , the idea 01:01:24.399 --> 01:01:27.139 of merit , our mission , our absolute 01:01:27.139 --> 01:01:29.139 commitment to duty and honor and 01:01:29.139 --> 01:01:31.439 country . These are the things that 01:01:31.659 --> 01:01:34.689 unify us . Send me 01:01:35.260 --> 01:01:39.250 becomes send us . Because you 01:01:39.250 --> 01:01:41.649 are one fighting force just as we are 01:01:41.649 --> 01:01:45.449 one nation under God . And the American 01:01:45.449 --> 01:01:47.505 people are responding to our renewed 01:01:47.505 --> 01:01:49.671 back to basics approach . Recruitments 01:01:49.671 --> 01:01:51.893 are up across the joint force , and I'm 01:01:51.893 --> 01:01:54.060 pleased to announce that just two days 01:01:54.060 --> 01:01:57.280 ago . The US Army met its 2026 01:01:57.280 --> 01:02:00.600 recruiting goals four months early . 01:02:08.219 --> 01:02:10.939 A second record year in a row . That 01:02:10.939 --> 01:02:13.106 means you're about to train this group 01:02:13.106 --> 01:02:16.699 right here and lead 61,500 new 01:02:16.699 --> 01:02:19.939 soldiers . And next year when we grow 01:02:19.939 --> 01:02:22.719 the size of the army , it will be even 01:02:22.909 --> 01:02:25.169 more . When you're out there in your 01:02:25.169 --> 01:02:27.225 formations as platoon leaders at the 01:02:27.225 --> 01:02:29.336 tip of the spear , you will be at the 01:02:29.336 --> 01:02:31.870 tip of the spear of their snapback . 01:02:33.040 --> 01:02:35.207 You will not compromise , you will not 01:02:35.207 --> 01:02:37.207 see color , and you will not try to 01:02:37.207 --> 01:02:38.959 meet arbitrary quotas based on 01:02:38.959 --> 01:02:41.909 immutable characteristics . You do not 01:02:41.909 --> 01:02:44.239 have time to celebrate identity months , 01:02:44.830 --> 01:02:46.719 and you will not make excuses for 01:02:46.719 --> 01:02:48.663 yourselves and you will not accept 01:02:48.663 --> 01:02:52.050 excuses from others . You will lead . 01:02:52.729 --> 01:02:54.785 That's what this academy has trained 01:02:54.785 --> 01:02:57.580 you to do , to lead us . To lead from 01:02:57.580 --> 01:02:59.580 the front , relentlessly train your 01:02:59.580 --> 01:03:02.020 soldiers , listen to your NCOs who are 01:03:02.020 --> 01:03:04.187 the backbone of the army and will save 01:03:04.187 --> 01:03:08.000 your life . Do harder PT Push 01:03:08.000 --> 01:03:10.333 your soldiers to become more proficient , 01:03:10.333 --> 01:03:13.149 more lethal , and more prepared at 01:03:13.419 --> 01:03:16.350 everything they do . As I think back on 01:03:16.350 --> 01:03:19.250 my first platoon . If I could rewind 01:03:19.250 --> 01:03:21.959 the clock and talk to high-speed 01:03:22.250 --> 01:03:24.939 National Guard 2nd Lieutenant Hegseth . 01:03:25.989 --> 01:03:28.459 Before leading his infantry platoon at 01:03:28.459 --> 01:03:30.820 Guantanamo Bay and into combat in Iraq . 01:03:31.389 --> 01:03:34.239 Here's a few things I'd tell him . Plan 01:03:34.239 --> 01:03:36.295 and rehearse for contingencies every 01:03:36.295 --> 01:03:38.128 time . There's no substitute for 01:03:38.128 --> 01:03:40.350 preparation ever . Anything that can go 01:03:40.350 --> 01:03:42.959 wrong will go wrong . Plan for recovery , 01:03:43.040 --> 01:03:45.151 resupply , alternate communications , 01:03:45.151 --> 01:03:48.600 rehearse and refine . The first air 01:03:48.600 --> 01:03:51.040 assault I ever did leading a platoon in 01:03:51.040 --> 01:03:53.639 Baghdad in the middle of the night on 01:03:53.639 --> 01:03:56.439 an al Qaeda objective . We had 36 hours 01:03:56.439 --> 01:03:58.606 to prepare and I spent every minute of 01:03:58.606 --> 01:04:00.959 those 36 hours preparing . And it paid 01:04:00.959 --> 01:04:03.139 off because when , and I love pilots , 01:04:03.560 --> 01:04:05.616 but when the pilots dropped us a few 01:04:05.616 --> 01:04:07.838 100 m in the wrong spot . In the middle 01:04:07.838 --> 01:04:10.939 of a mud field and the GPS didn't work , 01:04:11.320 --> 01:04:13.264 there was one man that platoon was 01:04:13.264 --> 01:04:15.320 looking at , it was me . And because 01:04:15.320 --> 01:04:17.439 I've done every map recon , every 01:04:17.439 --> 01:04:20.479 satellite imagery recon , every recon I 01:04:20.479 --> 01:04:22.646 could , I had a general sense of where 01:04:22.646 --> 01:04:25.139 we were and could orient at that moment 01:04:25.139 --> 01:04:27.399 in the right direction . If I had not 01:04:27.399 --> 01:04:29.621 prepared , they would have looked at me 01:04:29.621 --> 01:04:31.732 and I would have looked right back at 01:04:31.732 --> 01:04:33.899 them . And nothing I did was perfect , 01:04:33.899 --> 01:04:36.121 nothing you'll do will be perfect , but 01:04:36.121 --> 01:04:38.232 at least you can prepared . Always be 01:04:38.232 --> 01:04:40.455 the most prepared member in your unit . 01:04:40.500 --> 01:04:42.667 Be decisive and be aggressive . Pick a 01:04:42.667 --> 01:04:44.778 course of action and carry it through 01:04:45.060 --> 01:04:47.116 until you have a point to reassess . 01:04:47.116 --> 01:04:50.000 Don't keep second guessing . Set the 01:04:50.000 --> 01:04:52.820 example and display courage , both 01:04:52.820 --> 01:04:54.764 physically and morally to make the 01:04:54.764 --> 01:04:56.931 tough calls , especially when it's not 01:04:56.931 --> 01:04:59.139 popular . It doesn't mean you won't be 01:04:59.139 --> 01:05:01.850 afraid . But it means you will be 01:05:01.850 --> 01:05:04.729 prepared to push through it . Know the 01:05:04.729 --> 01:05:06.896 purpose of your mission and explain it 01:05:06.896 --> 01:05:10.020 to your soldiers . It greatly improves 01:05:10.020 --> 01:05:12.187 execution when you share with them the 01:05:12.187 --> 01:05:14.169 purpose and unlock their combined 01:05:14.169 --> 01:05:16.669 talent . And then take care of your 01:05:16.669 --> 01:05:19.399 soldiers . Take care of their families 01:05:19.620 --> 01:05:22.520 and each other . If you never leave a 01:05:22.520 --> 01:05:26.310 fallen comrade , You've done your job . 01:05:26.389 --> 01:05:28.760 You've done your job . If you're in 01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:31.010 trouble , if your men are in trouble , 01:05:31.350 --> 01:05:33.780 your women are in trouble , you are en 01:05:33.780 --> 01:05:37.550 route . Ask dude 44 Alpha and Dude 44 01:05:37.550 --> 01:05:40.469 Bravo how grateful they are that this 01:05:40.469 --> 01:05:43.790 spirit is alive and well . Down pilots , 01:05:44.110 --> 01:05:47.909 to mission , 7 hours in downtown Iran , 01:05:48.030 --> 01:05:49.919 straight up the middle , 1 in the 01:05:49.919 --> 01:05:52.086 middle of the day , 1 in the middle of 01:05:52.086 --> 01:05:54.229 the night . 2 American pilots home , 01:05:54.389 --> 01:05:56.500 never leave a fallen comrade behind . 01:06:06.239 --> 01:06:09.149 Last and most importantly , seek 01:06:09.729 --> 01:06:13.459 God . And know that we are not 01:06:13.560 --> 01:06:17.370 him . It's humbling It's also 01:06:17.370 --> 01:06:20.860 liberating As Charlie Kirk often 01:06:21.239 --> 01:06:24.570 said , remember , always , this too 01:06:24.719 --> 01:06:27.899 shall pass . The good times 01:06:28.679 --> 01:06:32.469 will pass . The bad times will 01:06:32.469 --> 01:06:34.989 pass . You're never as good as you 01:06:34.989 --> 01:06:38.110 think you are . Nor are you as bad as 01:06:38.110 --> 01:06:41.830 you think you are . Seek God in every 01:06:41.830 --> 01:06:45.050 circumstance . Nobody is perfect , but 01:06:45.050 --> 01:06:47.050 when the bullets start flying , you 01:06:47.050 --> 01:06:49.610 will not be unprepared . You and your 01:06:49.610 --> 01:06:51.666 soldiers must be the most prepared , 01:06:51.666 --> 01:06:53.777 best trained , deadliest , most elite 01:06:53.777 --> 01:06:57.330 in the world . You're in a dangerous 01:06:57.330 --> 01:06:59.739 line of work . And there is no world in 01:06:59.739 --> 01:07:01.860 which high intensity conflict exists 01:07:01.860 --> 01:07:04.082 without great pain , agony , sickness , 01:07:04.082 --> 01:07:07.889 and human tragedy . In this War 01:07:07.889 --> 01:07:10.780 Department . We raise up warriors , 01:07:10.909 --> 01:07:13.310 purpose-built , not for good weather , 01:07:13.469 --> 01:07:16.909 blue skies , or fancy parades . We're 01:07:16.909 --> 01:07:18.687 built to load up on the back of 01:07:18.687 --> 01:07:21.340 helicopters , C-17s or Strykers in the 01:07:21.340 --> 01:07:23.899 dead of night in fair weather or foul 01:07:23.899 --> 01:07:25.899 to go to dangerous places to engage 01:07:25.899 --> 01:07:28.419 those who would do our nation and our 01:07:28.419 --> 01:07:31.340 citizens harm and deliver justice in 01:07:31.340 --> 01:07:34.330 close and brutal combat on behalf of 01:07:34.330 --> 01:07:37.409 the American people . But what makes us 01:07:37.409 --> 01:07:39.250 different is that we don't fight 01:07:39.250 --> 01:07:41.472 because we hate what's in front of us . 01:07:42.139 --> 01:07:44.909 We fight because we love what's behind 01:07:44.909 --> 01:07:48.699 us . Our family , our freedom , and our 01:07:48.699 --> 01:07:49.229 flag . 01:07:57.959 --> 01:07:59.959 The battlefield does not grade on a 01:07:59.959 --> 01:08:02.379 curve . And you can't throw your 01:08:02.379 --> 01:08:03.712 pronouns at the enemy . 01:08:06.040 --> 01:08:09.360 Combat is the ultimate test , and our 01:08:09.360 --> 01:08:12.689 best Americans must ace it . Our 01:08:12.689 --> 01:08:14.760 competitors , near peer adversaries 01:08:14.760 --> 01:08:17.330 across the globe are trying to best us . 01:08:17.890 --> 01:08:20.112 They want to out-innovate us , outbuild 01:08:20.112 --> 01:08:22.168 us , and defeat us by whatever means 01:08:22.168 --> 01:08:24.223 necessary . They are watching us and 01:08:24.223 --> 01:08:26.223 they are testing us . When the call 01:08:26.223 --> 01:08:28.223 comes , either we're ready and your 01:08:28.223 --> 01:08:31.160 soldiers are ready or you are not . And 01:08:31.160 --> 01:08:33.160 our army , it must learn , and it's 01:08:33.160 --> 01:08:36.270 learning quickly drones , AI , and air 01:08:36.270 --> 01:08:39.259 defenses . And we must learn fast . 01:08:40.169 --> 01:08:42.600 And I need you to lead and lean into 01:08:42.600 --> 01:08:44.819 that learning . That is part of the 01:08:44.819 --> 01:08:47.580 snap back as well , at the small unit 01:08:47.580 --> 01:08:50.000 level , innovating every way possible 01:08:50.000 --> 01:08:52.111 in a world where on the battlefield , 01:08:52.111 --> 01:08:54.278 innovation at a moment's notice is the 01:08:54.278 --> 01:08:56.556 difference between success and failure . 01:08:58.520 --> 01:09:01.569 On the battlefield Well , social 01:09:01.569 --> 01:09:03.736 engineering and woke ideology are fine 01:09:03.736 --> 01:09:07.600 for Harvard , silly , but fine . On the 01:09:07.600 --> 01:09:09.600 battlefield , there is no place for 01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:12.720 them . Demand high standards , promote 01:09:12.720 --> 01:09:16.220 based on merit alone , be the snapback 01:09:16.600 --> 01:09:20.189 and do it without apology . Now as you 01:09:20.189 --> 01:09:22.411 go out to do your job , let me tell you 01:09:22.411 --> 01:09:24.633 briefly what my job is . First , my job 01:09:24.633 --> 01:09:26.856 is to make it easier for you to do your 01:09:26.856 --> 01:09:29.022 job by clearing away the debris . It's 01:09:29.022 --> 01:09:31.133 a daily struggle at the Pentagon . We 01:09:31.133 --> 01:09:33.356 have our war against bureaucracy and it 01:09:33.356 --> 01:09:36.778 is real . It is a war of attrition that 01:09:36.778 --> 01:09:39.139 I've told my staff every single day we 01:09:39.139 --> 01:09:42.099 will wage to win a war of attrition . 01:09:43.160 --> 01:09:45.438 For 4 years that we will fight and win . 01:09:45.438 --> 01:09:47.216 The bureaucratic nonsense , the 01:09:47.216 --> 01:09:49.271 political correctness , the red tape 01:09:49.271 --> 01:09:51.549 that have nothing to do with readiness , 01:09:51.549 --> 01:09:53.604 war fighting , or lethality , we are 01:09:53.604 --> 01:09:55.938 taking a chainsaw to all of it . Second , 01:09:55.939 --> 01:09:58.050 my job is to get you what you need to 01:09:58.050 --> 01:10:00.089 do your job . That means real 01:10:00.089 --> 01:10:02.490 acquisition reform , procurement reform , 01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:05.930 ending the culture of spending 10 years 01:10:05.930 --> 01:10:08.152 and $10 billion extra to build a system 01:10:08.152 --> 01:10:10.319 that's obsolete by the time it reaches 01:10:10.319 --> 01:10:12.919 your platoon . We're gonna buy lethal , 01:10:12.959 --> 01:10:15.070 effective gear and we're going to get 01:10:15.070 --> 01:10:17.126 it into your hands fast and then get 01:10:17.126 --> 01:10:18.903 you the right to repair as your 01:10:18.903 --> 01:10:20.959 secretary talks about all the time . 01:10:21.740 --> 01:10:24.680 Third , my job is to untie your hands 01:10:24.939 --> 01:10:27.319 and to have your back . When you make 01:10:27.319 --> 01:10:29.208 hard calls , when you enforce the 01:10:29.208 --> 01:10:31.100 standards , when you prioritize 01:10:31.279 --> 01:10:34.549 lethality over likability . You will 01:10:34.549 --> 01:10:38.080 have top cover . Lawyers don't run 01:10:38.080 --> 01:10:40.540 companies . Lawyers don't run 01:10:40.540 --> 01:10:44.470 battalions , commanders do . No 01:10:44.470 --> 01:10:47.229 more walking on eggshells . Order is 01:10:47.229 --> 01:10:50.089 being restored . And that's all I ever 01:10:50.089 --> 01:10:51.978 wanted from my chain of command , 01:10:51.978 --> 01:10:54.520 people who let me do my job . Empowered 01:10:54.520 --> 01:10:56.959 me to do it and then supported me when 01:10:56.959 --> 01:10:59.740 it was done . No matter what , 01:10:59.899 --> 01:11:01.955 President Trump and I will have your 01:11:01.955 --> 01:11:04.010 back when tough decisions are made , 01:11:04.060 --> 01:11:06.299 especially decisions made in a split 01:11:06.299 --> 01:11:08.379 second in the heat of battle that 01:11:08.379 --> 01:11:10.268 office air conditioned offices in 01:11:10.268 --> 01:11:12.046 Washington DC will never have . 01:11:12.046 --> 01:11:15.229 Understand . Your hands are untied . 01:11:16.149 --> 01:11:19.660 My job is easy . Your job is hard 01:11:20.410 --> 01:11:22.632 Your job is to forge a team of American 01:11:22.632 --> 01:11:24.854 soldiers who will stand tall , not back 01:11:24.854 --> 01:11:27.250 down , look the enemy in the eye , and 01:11:27.250 --> 01:11:31.169 whisper , Send us . You are 01:11:31.169 --> 01:11:33.225 in the profession of arms . You feel 01:11:33.225 --> 01:11:35.447 comfortable inside the violence so that 01:11:35.447 --> 01:11:37.780 our fellow citizens can live peacefully . 01:11:38.200 --> 01:11:40.229 Lethality is your calling card and 01:11:40.229 --> 01:11:42.629 victory our only acceptable end state . 01:11:42.959 --> 01:11:45.069 Your soldiers must be ready for 01:11:45.069 --> 01:11:47.200 anything . Because the world is only 01:11:47.200 --> 01:11:49.759 getting more complex . Just look at 01:11:49.759 --> 01:11:51.981 what our soldiers have done in just the 01:11:51.981 --> 01:11:54.203 last few months alone . We've asked our 01:11:54.203 --> 01:11:56.315 airborne and rapid reaction forces to 01:11:56.315 --> 01:11:58.259 deploy at a moment's notice to the 01:11:58.259 --> 01:12:00.148 Middle East , standing as an iron 01:12:00.148 --> 01:12:02.569 shield to protect American bases and 01:12:02.569 --> 01:12:05.589 American lives from Iranian proxies . 01:12:06.129 --> 01:12:09.330 This includes American army 01:12:09.330 --> 01:12:12.850 units using HAs to help 01:12:12.850 --> 01:12:16.770 sink the Iranian navy . I 01:12:16.770 --> 01:12:19.310 know the Army loves sinking the navy . 01:12:20.229 --> 01:12:22.062 That's the only navy navy you're 01:12:22.062 --> 01:12:23.618 currently allowed to sink . 01:12:26.149 --> 01:12:28.205 We've asked our special operators to 01:12:28.205 --> 01:12:30.149 conduct grueling highly classified 01:12:30.149 --> 01:12:33.509 missions in the SOCOM AOR . You may 01:12:33.509 --> 01:12:35.930 recall a small operation in Venezuela 01:12:36.470 --> 01:12:38.669 just after New Year's , the most 01:12:38.669 --> 01:12:40.780 complex raid in the history of JSOC . 01:12:41.870 --> 01:12:43.981 And we've asked our guard , reserve , 01:12:43.981 --> 01:12:45.981 and active duty units right here at 01:12:45.981 --> 01:12:48.092 home , defending the homeland , going 01:12:48.092 --> 01:12:50.470 to our southern border to secure that 01:12:50.470 --> 01:12:52.270 border , to respond to natural 01:12:52.270 --> 01:12:54.437 disasters and bring order and security 01:12:54.437 --> 01:12:56.603 to our communities . I could go on and 01:12:56.603 --> 01:12:58.548 on . This is what our soldiers are 01:12:58.548 --> 01:13:00.548 doing right now , and tomorrow they 01:13:00.548 --> 01:13:03.109 will be looking at you to lead them . 01:13:05.810 --> 01:13:09.569 My 7 kids are here with me today . My 01:13:09.569 --> 01:13:12.060 wife Jenny and I brought them . Our 01:13:12.060 --> 01:13:15.970 oldest is 15 years old . He may 01:13:16.310 --> 01:13:20.009 look at attending West 0.1 day . Or 01:13:20.589 --> 01:13:22.529 heaven forbid the Naval Academy . 01:13:26.819 --> 01:13:30.149 Who knows ? We have 5 boys and 2 girls , 01:13:30.549 --> 01:13:33.430 all Americans , all children of God . 01:13:34.950 --> 01:13:37.169 I don't know what path God will choose 01:13:37.169 --> 01:13:38.959 for them . And I know that I'll 01:13:38.959 --> 01:13:41.126 fiercely love them no matter what they 01:13:41.126 --> 01:13:44.000 do . But I can tell you this , nothing 01:13:44.000 --> 01:13:46.056 in the world would make me prouder . 01:13:47.060 --> 01:13:49.779 Than to hear one of them stand up and 01:13:49.779 --> 01:13:52.580 proclaim , send me . 01:13:53.939 --> 01:13:56.540 We live in a culture of clickbait and 01:13:56.540 --> 01:13:59.299 rage bait and vapid social media and 01:13:59.299 --> 01:14:02.529 celebrity gossip . In a world like that , 01:14:02.569 --> 01:14:04.736 it's really easy to get distracted and 01:14:04.736 --> 01:14:07.319 lost . And no matter what my kids end 01:14:07.319 --> 01:14:10.850 up choosing , I pray like this audience , 01:14:11.080 --> 01:14:14.390 they choose substance . I pray they 01:14:14.390 --> 01:14:17.629 choose service . And I pray they choose 01:14:17.629 --> 01:14:21.020 purpose . Send me is the timeless , 01:14:21.120 --> 01:14:23.569 selfless call to service . It's the 01:14:23.569 --> 01:14:25.810 craving to serve something greater than 01:14:25.810 --> 01:14:28.032 yourself , and there's no better way to 01:14:28.032 --> 01:14:30.339 do it . Than to choose the United 01:14:30.339 --> 01:14:33.100 States Military Academy at West Point . 01:14:34.299 --> 01:14:35.580 You made that choice . 01:14:44.529 --> 01:14:46.696 You made that choice , and there is no 01:14:46.696 --> 01:14:49.310 higher calling on planet Earth .

Who we 01:15:06.120 --> 01:15:07.959 celebrate , who we honor is a 01:15:07.959 --> 01:15:10.279 reflection of what any society values . 01:15:10.720 --> 01:15:12.887 We honor you today and rightfully so . 01:15:13.790 --> 01:15:15.901 You should be my kids' heroes , and I 01:15:15.901 --> 01:15:18.830 know for a fact that you are mine . 01:15:20.430 --> 01:15:21.830 You are the real 1% . 01:15:31.279 --> 01:15:33.459 You are the real 1% of our society . 01:15:34.250 --> 01:15:36.640 You are the real elite .
