You could have taken your Princeton education and chosen the easiest path imaginable. Instead, you chose to wear the uniform and serve your country.
You served in the Army National Guard.
You deployed to Guantanamo Bay.
You deployed to Iraq.
You deployed to Afghanistan.
Three deployments—when you never had to serve even once.
Two Bronze Stars on your chest.
Not just medals.
A testament to your service and sacrifice.
And when your military service ended, you didn’t stop serving.
You became a voice for veterans who too often felt forgotten.
You stood up for the men and women who had given so much and deserved to be heard.
Donald Trump recognized that commitment and entrusted you with leading the most powerful military in the world.
Today, you're in Singapore.
Away from Jennifer.
Away from your seven children.
Away from the family that continues to stand strong because Jennifer carries so much while you fulfill your responsibilities.
Pete—I’ve watched your journey over the past several months.
And today, I want to say three simple words:
We appreciate you.
Not only as the Secretary of Defense.
Not only as a Princeton graduate.
Not only as a former Fox News host.
But as a soldier.
A father.
A man who has devoted himself to serving others with quiet determination, never asking for recognition.
May God watch over Pete Hegseth, bring him home safely, bless Jennifer, bless each of their seven children, and remind this family that countless Americans are thankful for their sacrifices—even when we don't always say it out loud. 
What would you like to say to Pete Hegseth today?
