I call upon our youth, parents, and educators, and all the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate activities.
It is a tribute to the American worker and testimony to the skill, training, and dedication of our people.
Today marks a major milestone in the defense of our nation.
It is proof positive of the know-how and can-do spirit of America's most valuable asset—the American work force.
