Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"It is our hope that they will strengthen the bonds among you and further advance the well-being of your member countries."

"I just can't sum up in any words of mine how proud I am of the Marines, the Navy, the Army, the Air Force, and the Coast Guard, and the fellows that never look back."

"I want to thank all the doctors, and the nurses, and the aides in this wonderful hospital for doing the best they can to make us all comfortable."

"Tell all your families--your wives, your children, your mothers, and your fathers--that the President of your country is mighty proud of you."
