He concluded: “As you enter the officer corps of the greatest military in the history of the world, our national strength is back. Our morale is back. We are a confident country again. We have confidences back, and above all, America is back, bigger and better and stronger than ever before. We have a strong, great, respected country again.”
“I’ve learned a lot about life, but the one thing I've really learned is that perseverance, never quitting, never giving up, is a big deal.”
“Second, at this pivotal time of transformation for our armed forces, you have to think big. It's much better thinking big, small solutions yield small results. Only big ideas will yield to tremendous change and greatness. Americans do not want to live in a world ruled by someone else's big ideas.”
“It would be tough if I didn't do things, if I didn't do things, I don't know what I'd be doing, it probably wouldn't be good, but you got to love it, and if you love it, it's never considered work.”

POTUS left the stage at 12:53 p.m. and walked into a nearby building off the field, where he was before his remarks.
Pool was ushered into the vans at 12:55 p.m.
Pool didn’t see POTUS get into the Beast in an adjacent tent, but the motorcade started rolling back to GON at 12:57 p.m.
