("Taps")

00:10.606 --> 00:13.680
(TV clicks)

00:13.680 --> 00:15.760
- Those who say that we're in a time

00:15.760 --> 00:17.253
when there are no heroes,

00:19.170 --> 00:21.560
they just don't know where to look.

00:21.560 --> 00:25.460
No arsenal, or no weapon in
the arsenals of the world,

00:25.460 --> 00:29.730
is so formidable as the
will and moral courage

00:29.730 --> 00:31.490
of free men and women.

00:31.490 --> 00:36.310
Their lives ended in
places called Belleau Wood,

00:36.310 --> 00:40.950
The Argonne, Omaha Beach, Salerno

00:40.950 --> 00:44.880
and halfway around the world
on Guadalcanal, Tarawa,

00:44.880 --> 00:48.700
Pork Chop Hill, the Chosin Reservoir,

00:48.700 --> 00:51.500
and in a hundred rice paddies and jungles

00:51.500 --> 00:52.800
of a place called Vietnam.

00:53.830 --> 00:58.000
Peace is the highest aspiration
of the American people.

00:58.000 --> 01:02.810
We will negotiate for
it, sacrifice for it.

01:02.810 --> 01:07.663
We will not surrender
for it, now, or ever.

01:07.663 --> 01:08.970
(crowd claps)
(crowd cheers)

01:08.970 --> 01:11.437
We are Americans.

01:11.437 --> 01:14.270
