QUICK STORY.
I'M A NATIVE CALIFORNIAN MY
PARENTS GOT MARRIED VERY EARLY
MY MOM GOT MERRY TWO DAYS BEFORE
SEVENTEENTH BIRTHDAY MY DAD
AROUND.
TWENTY AND THEY MOVED -- TO THE
CHEVY HILLS AREA IN AN APARTMENT
ON HOME DRIVE -- I THINK MAYBE
AND CENTER ALLEN'S DISTRICT.
AND THEIR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR WAS
AN ITALIAN COUPLE.
IAN JOSEPH PREEMIES.
AND THEY DEVELOPED A TREMENDOUS
FRIENDSHIP AND MARION JOE
DECIDED TO MOVE FROM LOS ANGELES
TO THIS NEW SUBURB OF LOS
ANGELES CALL ANAHEIM. FIVE MILES
FROM DISNEYLAND AND BOUGHT WHAT
WAS CALLED ANY CINDERELLA HOME.
A THREE BEDROOM HOUSE THOUSAND
FIFTY SQUARE FEET FIFTEEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS BACK IN.
NINETEEN FIFTY SIX FIFTY SEVEN
WELL MY PARENTS LOVED MERION
JOKE.
AND THEY MOVED. TO GO TO ANAHEIM
TO BE NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORS TO
THEM AND THAT'S WHERE I SPENT MY
CHILDHOOD IN ANAHEIM CALIFORNIA.
AND I HAD A VERY STRONG.
AFFECTION FOR JOING MERRY
ESPECIALLY JOE WE COMMONLY CALL
THEM.
UNCLE JOE AN AUNT MARY AND THEY
HAD. THREE KIDS JOE JUNIOR
RICHARD BERNICE NOW WHO LIVES UP
IN THE NAPA AREA AND MARIA --
BERNICE THE YOUNGEST OF THE
THREE BUT AS I WAS GROWING UP.
JOE NEVER TALKED ABOUT.
THE MILITARY I NEWS PATRIOTIC HE
ALWAYS FLEW THE FLAG ON MEMORIAL
DAY VETERANS DAY GOD BLESS YOU
[inaudible]
AND AS TIME WENT ON MY PARENTS
MOVED FROM [inaudible]
ANAHEIM TERROR.
AT A HOT SPRINGS AND MARY JO
FOLLOWED THIS KIND OF
UNBELIEVABLE THAT THEY'VE BEEN
LIKE FAMILY ALL OF OUR LIVES.
AND THEN AS A MARINE JOE WE'RE
GETTING OLDER.
THEY MOVED CLAREMONT TO BE
CLOSER TO THEIR KIDS
[inaudible]
AND I WAS MADE AWARE OF A STORE.
SO.
JOE WAS A WORLD WAR TWO VETERAN.
AND ABOUT EIGHT YEARS AGO.
A FRENCH CITIZEN WAS USING A
METAL DETECTOR.
ON THE BEACHES OF NORMANDY.
AND FOUND A DOG TAG.
IN A SAID JOSEPH BERNICE ON IT.
AND TURNED IT OVER TO THE FRENCH
GOVERNMENT.
THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT WANTED TO
MAKE SURE THEY KNEW WHO THIS
MISTER JOE PREMIES WAS.
ANYONE IS IF HE WAS STILL ALIVE.
AND WHAT WE LATER FOUND OUT WAS
THAT [inaudible]
JOE.
WAS ON THE BEACHES OF NORMANDY.
AND WAS BLOWN OUT [inaudible]
SURVIVE.
AND WENT TO A MILITARY HOSPITAL
IN GERMANY FOR A NUMBER OF
MONTHS.
AND THEN FLEW HOME. TO BE WITH
HIS WIFE.
AND IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH.
HE RE ENLISTED BACK AND FOUGHT
IN THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE AFTER
ALMOST LOSE LIFE.
THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT TRACK HIM
DOWN.
AND SALUTE HIM.
AND HIS SON FIRST CLASS ON AIR
FRANCE [inaudible]
THE PARIS. TO RECOGNIZE HIM.
THEY GIVE HIM THE HIGHEST HONOR.
THAT A NON CITIZEN OF FRANCE
COULD EVER GET FOR HERE IS --
AND BRAVERY.
THIS SHOWS YOU THE KIND OF
DEDICATION.
THE FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY.
THAT EXISTED IN THE GREATEST
GENERATION OF ALL.
THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT THE D.
DAY INVASION WAS A TURNING POINT.
IN THE WORLD WAR TWO WAR
[inaudible]
WITHOUT IT.
THE CONTINENT OF EUROPE MAYBE
GERMAN SPEAKING TODAY AND A
POWER FOR WHICH WE NEED TO BE
CONCERNED ABOUT.
SO MY FRIENDS AS WE RECOGNIZE
THIS VERY IMPORTANT DAY -- I
WANT TO JUST PAY TRIBUTE TO ALL
THOSE MEN AND WOMEN.
THEY GAVE THEIR LIVES ON THE
BEACHES OF NORMANDY THERE WERE
MANY OF WHOM WERE SITTING DUCKS.
AS A FLOOD THAT BE CHAPTER.
THE SEAS WERE SO ROUGH COMING IN
FROM ENGLAND MANY OF THEM GOT
OFF THOSE TRANSPORTERS SICK FROM
JUST BEING SEASICK.
BOB DOLE WITHOUT THEIR HEROISM
WITHOUT THE INVASION -- WE WOULD
NOT I BELIEVE OF THE COMMENT AND
AND DEFEATING FASCISM AND
COMMUNISM -- AND THE DASTARDLY.
HEINOUS CRIMES OF ADOLF HITLER
THAT HAD A DEVASTATING EFFECT ON
MY FAMILY.
SO IN HONOR OF ALL THE MEN AND
WOMEN COURAGEOUSLY OF SERVED
ESPECIALLY THOSE.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA IT IS TODAY.
BECAUSE THE DAY WE COME TOGETHER
AS AMERICANS TO HONOR.
THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO SERVED IN
WORLD WAR TWO KNOWN AS THE
GREATEST GENERATION.
BUT I HAVE A PERSONAL TOUCH DAD
AND THAT IS THE FACT THAT.
OF MY COLLEAGUES -- FROM SANTA
ANA.
OF PHILLIP PARATROOPER WEARS HIS
WINGS AS I WEAR MINE.
AND I'M SO PROUD TO SHARE THAT
WITH YOU LADIES AND GENTLEMAN.
BUT IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM.
THERE'S A WORLD WAR TWO VETERAN --
SIR WOULD YOU PLEASE STAND UP.
ON HIS HAT HE HAS THE PATCH OF
THE EIGHTY SECOND AIRBORNE.
MY OLD OUTFIT
. TOO MANY WE MAY
CALL HIM A BAND OF BROTHERS.
AIR TO PURSUE SERVE WITH THE
EIGHTY SECOND AIRBORNE AND OF
COURSE THE HUNDRED AND FIRST.
BUT I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU.
MISTER PRESIDENT.
THAT I AM IN SUPPORT.
BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT ALL OF
US KNOW THAT.
THE INVASION AND EUROPE -- KNOWN
AS THE DAY.
WAS SO DETRIMENTAL. TO OUR
SUCCESS IN EUROPE.
BUT THE HEROISM THAT THESE MEN.
WHO -- IN THIS CASE I'VE GOT A
HIGHLIGHT THESE PARATROOPERS
BECAUSE OF A DEBT OF GRATITUDE
IS OWED TO THEM.
THE BAND OF BROTHERS WE'VE HEARD
ABOUT.
THE RANGERS WHO SCALE THE THE
MOUNTAINSIDE TO GET UP TO THE
TOP.
BUT LET ME SHARE WITH YOU.
SEVENTY FIVE YEARS AGO. THIRTEEN
THOUSAND PARATROOPERS JUMPED.
INTO FRANCE BEHIND ENEMY LINES.
BUT I ALSO LIKE TO TAKE A MOMENT
TO TALK ABOUT THE AIRMEN IN
THOSE AIRPLANES.
THE ARMY AIR CORPS.
BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT.
OVER.
SIX THOUSAND THE EIGHTY SECOND
AIRBORNE.
PARTICIPATED MANY MANY WERE
WOUNDED AND KILLED.
BUT LISTEN TO THIS A FLEET.
OF THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY NINE
AIRCRAFT THREE HUNDRED SIXTY
NINE C..
FORTY SEVEN DROP THESE
PARATROOPERS BEHIND THE LINES --
THAT ONE OH FIVE I'M SORRY AT
ONE FIFTY ONE IN THE MORNING
THAT STATE MERRY PLEASED WITH
THE EIGHTY SECOND.
BUT THE FACT IS THAT SO MANY OF
THESE PLANES WERE SHOT DOWN.
FORTY TWO AIRCRAFT WERE LOST.
IMAGINE LADIES IN GERMAN FORTY
TWO AIRCRAFT FILLED WITH
PARATROOPERS.
AND ARMY AIR CORPSMAN. FORTY TWO
THESE WERE WERE SHOT DOWN EVEN
BEFORE THE JUMP HAPPEN.
AND IT IS AMAZING WHAT THEY HAD
TO DO EVEN BEFORE THE JUMP
ITSELF.
THE EIGHTY SECOND AIRBORNE ALONG
WITH THE HUNDRED AND FIRST
AIRBORNE.
AS I SAID JUMP BEHIND ENEMY
LINES PLAYED A SIGNIFICANT ROLE
DURING THOSE EARLY DAYS OF
FIGHTING.
AND STOP THE RESERVES FROM
COMING ACROSS IN STOPPING THE
INVASION.
THEN I STAND HERE'S A FELLOW
PARATROOPER GENERATIONS LATER.
THE SAY THANK YOU TO THE MEN WHO
SERVED OUR GREAT COUNTRY IN WAR
THESE WINGS.
AND ID LIKE TO THANK YOU ALL
FOR ACKNOWLEDGING THEM.
THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO SERVED IN
WORLD WAR.

THE LIBERTIES AND FREEDOMS THAT
WE HAVE TODAY.
THAT IT IS ONLY FITTING THAT WE
SUPPORT.
ALL OF US WHO SERVED IN THE
MILITARY OF MEN AND WOMEN AND
THOSE WHO ARE SERVING IN UNIFORM

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THE FACT
THAT ALL OF US CAME TOGETHER AT
A TIME.

TO BE DEFEATED?
AFTER DECEMBER SEVENTH NINETEEN
FORTY ONE BUT WE ROSE AS A
COUNTRY WE ROSE AS AMERICANS.

LONELINESS OF LEADERSHIP.

EXPERIENCE.
BUT PROBABLY NOT A HEN HISTORY

THIS INVASION THAT CHANGED.
WORLD HISTORY.
WITH THE BURDEN SOLELY ON HIM.
THE RESPONSIBILITY ACCEPTED IN A
NOTE THAT HE THEN HAD ALREADY
DRAFTED.
WHERE THAT INVASION? TO FAIL.
BUT OTHER EXPERIENCE.
IN TO MY ATTENTION AS I WAS
READING THE G. MALES OF MY
STEPFATHER AFTER HE PASSED AWAY

CARD.
TYPE THING THAT THE G. EYES
WOULD BE USED TO WRITE TO THE
FAMILIES OR THEIR LOVED ONES
HOME.

ACTUALLY EVERY SINGLE DAY.
THE SERVER.
AS I'M RAMBLING THREE THESE
THINGS AND THEY WERE GENERALLY
VERY INNOCUOUS BECAUSE THEY WERE.
HEAVILY CENSORED.

WATCHING.
THOSE PLANES.
MAYBE EVEN SOME THAT CARRIED
THIS GENTLEMAN HERE WHO SERVED
IN THE EIGHTY SECOND OR THE
FATHERS OF AYE TWO COLLEAGUES
HERE TODAY.
WHO WERE PARATROOPERS?
HE WAS WATCHING THOSE PLANES AND
THEN HAD TO ACCOUNT FOR THOSE
WHO.
DID NOT COME BACK.
BUT THE UNDERSTATED WAY.
THAT HE PLACE THAT KNOWLEDGE TO
HIS MOTHER.
IS SO TYPICAL OF THAT GREATEST
GENERATION.
THEY WERE HEROES WHO.
TRIED TO AVOID.
THE GLORY IN THE BURDEN OF HAIR
WAS.
THEY WERE HUMBLE MEN AND WOMEN.
WHO DIDN'T GO ABOUT TELLING
THEIR STORIES?
SOMETHING THEIR CHESS.
THEY CAME HOME AND HELP BUILD
THIS NATION [inaudible]

ARE THE POLITICAL PRINCIPLES
CONTAIN OUR FOUNDING DOCUMENTS
THE CONSTITUTION A DECLARATION.
THE BILL OF RIGHTS IN THE GREAT
NORTHWEST ORDINANCE AND THOSE
ARE THE THINGS WHICH LIMITED

TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN AS
TRANSFERS MYELITIS AWARENESS DAY
TRANSFERS MYELITIS IS A RARE
INFLAMMATORY DISEASE THAT CAUSES
INJURY TO THE SPINAL CORD.
SYMPTOMS OF TRANSVERSE MYELITIS
INCLUDE SEVERE NEUROLOGICAL PAIN
A LOSS OF SPINAL CORD FUNCTION
WITH RAPIDLY PROGRESSING MUSCLE
WEAKNESS OR PARALYSIS.
RECOVERY FROM THIS DISEASE IS
DIFFICULT AND REQUIRES MONTHS OF
ACUTE TREATMENT AND THERAPY.
DATA SUGGEST THAT ONLY ONE THIRD
OF PATIENTS DIAGNOSED WITH THIS
TRANSFERS MYELITIS WILL MAKE A
FULL RECOVERY.
ALTHOUGH AN ESTIMATED FOURTEEN
HUNDRED NEW CASES ARE DIAGNOSED
IN THE UNITED STATES EACH YEAR
TRANSFERS MYELITIS IS NOT WIDELY
RECOGNIZED AS BEING AS SERIOUS
LIFE ALTERING NEUROLOGICAL
DISORDER.
AS A RESULT IT'S IMPORTANT TO
CALL FOR GREATER AWARENESS OF
THIS DISEASE IN ADDITION TO
FURTHER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND
FUNDING TO HELP BENEFIT THOSE
INDIVIDUALS WHO LIVE WITH THIS
CONDITION.

GREW.
AUSTRIA WAS RIGHT ON THE THE
BORDER OF WITH THE IRON CURTAIN
