All Americans qualified to serve should be able to do so.

I’ve done 24 years of wearin’ uniform of this country.

Thank you for your service, sir.

It has been the honor of my life to serve you as President.

To know Joe Biden is to know that love without pretense, service without self-regard, and to live life fully.

These are men who signed up to serve and protect their citizens.

We can never repay them fully for their sacrifices.

This unique opportunity to work within our nation's government is designed to encourage active citizenship and a lifelong commitment to service.

So this will be tough. But as so often is the case, our men and women in uniform show us the way.

We will be forever grateful for what these remarkable men and women did.

Peace Corps supporters and volunteers continue to respond to President Kennedy's call to service.

Some of us may be less talented, but we all have the opportunity to serve.

We are extraordinarily blessed to be Americans because we have the opportunity to serve in ways that so many of you have served.

Our time of service to our newest veterans has only just begun.

This Veterans Day, we must all reaffirm our commitment to serving those who have already served and sacrificed on our behalf.

There is no more fitting tribute to a man who has demonstrated to the world the extraordinary power of nonviolence, of tolerance, and of unwavering service to our fellow men and women.

I want to express my deep appreciation for Dick Lugar's distinguished service in the United States Senate.

I'm going to make sure that anyone who serves this country gets every opportunity they deserve.
