I really do appreciate it.
We all want fair and transparent competition. Everybody's saying that and I think that's clear.
We continue to see reports--and Admiral Mullen, I know combat-related stress is a great concern for you.
I think that's exactly what we need to be doing because, as the Admiral mentioned, this isn't just a DOD problem; it's a problem for everyon...
No one said it was going to be easy.
I think that the worst thing we can do is to not talk about it.
I wanted to personally thank all of you and everyone you oversee for the tremendous work that they do.
I'm worried about compassion fatigue with our nurses, and I know that's a recruiting issue, and a retention issue.
So am I for big-time Youth Challenge? Absolutely.
It is a great program, and I want to commend you for doing that.
I really commend you. I think you have made a lot of progress with that, and it is so important...
