President Trump's 75th Anniversary D-Day Speech

Picture

Watch the speech here

President Donald Trump commemorated the 75th anniversary of D-Day on Thursday and delivered the following speech in honor of those “thousands [who] sacrificed their lives” for liberty

Excerpt from President Trump's D-Day Speech 

​To all of our friends and partners: Our cherished alliance was forged in the heat of battle, tested in the trials of war, and proven in the blessings of peace. Our bond is unbreakable.
 
From across the Earth, Americans are drawn to this place as though it were a part of our very soul. We come not only because of what they did here. We come because of who they were.
 
They were young men with their entire lives before them. They were husbands who said goodbye to their young brides and took their duty as their fate. They were fathers who would never meet their infant sons and daughters because they had a job to do. And with God as their witness, they were going to get it done. They came wave after wave, without question, without hesitation, and without complaint.
 
More powerful than the strength of American arms was the strength of American hearts.
 
These men ran through the fires of hell moved by a force no weapon could destroy: the fierce patriotism of a free, proud, and sovereign people. (Applause.) They battled not for control and domination, but for liberty, democracy, and self-rule.
 
They pressed on for love in home and country — the Main Streets, the schoolyards, the churches and neighbors, the families and communities that gave us men such as these.
 
They were sustained by the confidence that America can do anything because we are a noble nation, with a virtuous people, praying to a righteous God.
 
The exceptional might came from a truly exceptional spirit. The abundance of courage came from an abundance of faith. The great deeds of an Army came from the great depths of their love.
 
As they confronted their fate, the Americans and the Allies placed themselves into the palm of God’s hand.
