Sergeant Major Carlos A. Ruiz and I were honored to attend the 80th Reunion of Honor for the Battle of Iwo Jima, to walk the ground, honor the fallen, and reflect. Iwo Jima reminds us that peace is never guaranteed; it endures through those who value it and stand in its defense with strength.

This week, I had the honor of visiting Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C., the second oldest post in the U.S. Marines. It was a truly meaningful experience to observe several time-honored ceremonies and engage with recruits, new #Marines, drill instructors, and dedicated staff. #Tradition #Legacy #Ceremony
