the governed; a democracy In a
Republic; a sovereign Nation of
many sovereign states; a perfect
Union, one and Inseparable; es
tablished upon those principles
of freedom, equality. Justice, and
humanity for which American
patriots sacrificed their lives and
fortunes, I therefore believe it is
my duty to my Country to love
It; to support its Constitution;
to obey its laws; to respect its
flag; and to defend it against all
enemies’’
The duty of defending this
Nation against all enemies Is a
duty for each and every one of
us, and for the soldier, it means
being prepared to fight and to
meet cheerfully all the trials
and tribulations of the training
necessary to this end. That is
what we arehere for. To learn
how to do our jobs. We expect
to make mistakes from time to
time. If we were perfect. It
would not have been necessary
to spend the time or money on
these maneuvers. 1 have this to
tell you in regard to your atti-
mde—it has been excellent. You
have the spirit that insures suc
cess. Don’t be afraid to admit
yoiir mistakes. If you profit by
them, it merely means that you
are wiser today than you were
yesterday. Be alert, leam to play
the game and be aggressive.
Keep 111 mind the proud record
of accomplishment established
by all those who have preceded
you. Consider how much they
have done so that yon and your
fellows could enjoy the benefits
of freedom and independence.
And he resolved that in their,
memory and for your future and |
the future of .America, our Arniy ,
