The Army's Always Had A Special Place

One Only Has To Look At The Performance Of The Economy To Understand How It Shapes The Perspective Of America's Youth About Military Service.

But The Fact Is, Mr. Chairman, For All The Challenges The Postal Service Of The 21st Century Faces, It Still Retains Its Traditional Place As A Key Cog In How American Businesses Conduct Their Affairs And How Americans All Across This Land Communicate.

As America Celebrates Memorial Day, We Pay Tribute To Those Who Have Given Their Lives In Our Nation's Wars.

My Hope Is That We Continue To Do An Even Better Job In Terms Of Our Nation's Energy Policy, So That We May Even Further Reduce Our Reliance On Foreign Sources Of Oil And Take Better Care Of Our Environment In The Process.

Since Far Fewer People Are Recruited To Serve In A Voluntary Military, The Connection Between America And Its Military Is Increasingly Tenuous And Less Personal.
