Words from our first Commander-in-Chief, our first president, first in war, first in peace, first in the mind and heart of all countrymen, of course George Washington. And he was the first to proclaim Thanksgiving, and he put out a Thanksgiving Proclamation. And in that Proclamation, he wrote this in 1789,
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the Providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits and humbly to implore his protection and favor.
So to almighty God, we pray today this Thanksgiving, implore your protection and favor upon this crew, upon this ship, upon this battle group, and all men and women deployed around our hemisphere and the world, Godspeed. God bless. You are in our prayers and we are grateful.
Sec. War. Out
