"The war is now 20 years past, but I think that they can all take the strongest pride in having served their country during difficult and dangerous days in a service which required the utmost in skill ..."
"Thank you very much, Admiral."
"HELLO, Admiral, I want to express all of our thanks to you and to send our very best wishes to all those who served in the '110.'"
"I think it is appropriate as we look to the future of our country that we also recall those who served it in times past."
