Message Sending Holiday Greetings to Members of the Armed Forces,
December 18, 2006
To the Men and Women of the United States Armed Forces
On behalf of all Americans, Laura and I send our best holiday wishes to you and your families.
During this hopeful time of year, the hearts of Americans are filled with gratitude for the many blessings in our lives. We are especially thankful for the priceless gift of freedom that our Armed Forces help defend by serving the cause of peace and standing watch over our security. As courageous Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen, you have set aside comfort and convenience to protect the rest of us, earning the respect of a grateful Nation and a proud Commander in Chief.
Many of you are confronting our adversaries abroad and observing the holidays in places far from home, but you are close to our hearts. You are serving at a time when our Nation needs you, and your fellow citizens appreciate the many sacrifices that you and your families are making every day. Over the holidays and throughout the New Year, we will continue to ask the Almighty to bestow His care on you and your loved ones.
Laura and I wish each of you a safe and joyous holiday season. May God bless and watch over you, and may God bless America.
George W. Bush
