(1/6) On behalf of the Joint Force, our heartfelt condolences are with Stephanie and the entire family of former Secretary of Defense Ash Carter. Secretary Carter was a true professional who was deeply committed to serving this nation. (2/6) Throughout his life, Secretary Carter served in many roles in academia and US Government national security key leadership positions. The common thread through all these roles was his competence, compassion, integrity, and civility.

1/3 Today, we gather here to honor the fallen of 9/11, to remember and reflect, and to reaffirm our resolve to support and defend the Constitution, the idea and reality that is America for which those brave souls gave their last full measure of devotion. 2/3 So let us resolve, let us resolve here yet again today to never forget those who were murdered by terrorists. Never forget those who rushed to save lives and gave theirs.
