we are all so proud of the American men and women in uniform who risked and gave their lives to liberate the Iraqi people. They performed bravely and brilliantly, proving once again that there has never been a fighting force in the history of the world as well trained, well equipped, and well motivated as the United States of America's. Of course, their work is not done. Far from it: serious danger remains. Winning the peace will take a sustained commitment. But we can already look back with so much gratitude at the sacrifices the men and women of our Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard have made for our security and the security of the world. In my service in the Senate and on the Senate Armed Services Committee, I have heard countless stories of the heroism of those who protect us.
