War is much too serious a thing to be left to military men.

Throughout the history of our young nation, we have seen our military go bravely into battle, armed with courage and willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

War is too serious a matter to entrust to military men.

The highly motivated young people who comprise the backbone of our military force truly are taking their place as one of America's greatest generations.

Recruitment and retention are critical to sustain our Armed Forces with the best men and women willing to stand in the gap and make huge sacrifices to ensure our freedom.

This is still a man's profession, with a lot of men who intellectually and emotionally have not accepted that the military could be women's work.

The military lead turbulent lives, but they are people like everybody else.

If our soldiers are not overburdened with money, it is not because they have a distaste for riches; if their lives are not unduly long, it is not because they are disinclined to longevity.

The tragedy of modern war is that the young men die fighting each other - instead of their real enemies back home in the capitals.

I guess it's sad that anybody, regardless of profession, that they're in this country, would take a shot at our military.
