00:01.204 --> 00:03.742
- (drill instructor) I said
good morning Kilo Company!

00:03.742 --> 00:06.388
(Marines greet loudly)

00:06.388 --> 00:07.432
That's much better.

00:18.096 --> 00:19.900
- Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,

00:19.900 --> 00:21.980
on behalf of Brigadier General Heritage,

00:21.980 --> 00:24.130
the Commanding General of the
Marine Corps Recruit Depot,

00:24.130 --> 00:26.160
in the Western recruiting region.

00:26.160 --> 00:29.060
I'd like to welcome you
virtually, to sunny San Diego

00:29.060 --> 00:32.140
and today's Family Day
message for Kilo Company.

00:32.140 --> 00:34.130
My name is Colonel Matt Palmer,

00:34.130 --> 00:35.340
and I am the Commanding Officer

00:35.340 --> 00:37.240
of the Recruit Training Regimen.

00:37.240 --> 00:40.250
I'm assisted in my duties by
my senior enlisted leader,

00:40.250 --> 00:42.280
Sergeant Major Paul Agan.

00:42.280 --> 00:44.184
Together we've had the distinct pleasure

00:44.184 --> 00:47.670
of observing your new Marines
throughout their training,

00:47.670 --> 00:49.970
and we couldn't be more proud
of what they've accomplished

00:49.970 --> 00:51.270
in a short period of time.

00:52.470 --> 00:53.950
That said, we know that our jobs

00:53.950 --> 00:55.620
would have been much more difficult,

00:55.620 --> 00:58.240
had it not been for the
solid moral foundation

00:58.240 --> 01:00.800
that you laid for them back at home.

01:00.800 --> 01:02.810
Moreover, the love and support

01:02.810 --> 01:04.770
that you provided
throughout their training,

01:04.770 --> 01:07.800
was absolutely critical to their success,

01:07.800 --> 01:10.400
and we wanna thank you for that.

01:10.400 --> 01:11.540
There's a couple of other groups

01:11.540 --> 01:13.980
that I'd like to
recognize out there today.

01:13.980 --> 01:17.740
First, if you served in any
branch of the armed forces,

01:17.740 --> 01:19.320
whether under the watchful eye of peace

01:19.320 --> 01:21.130
or during the time of war,

01:21.130 --> 01:24.090
we wanna thank you for your
service and your sacrifice.

01:24.090 --> 01:26.770
It has served as an example for all of us,

01:26.770 --> 01:30.100
and especially the young
Marines of Kilo Company.

01:30.100 --> 01:34.140
We know that great Marines
come from great families,

01:34.140 --> 01:36.103
and your new Marines are no different.

01:37.390 --> 01:40.020
We know how difficult it must be

01:40.020 --> 01:42.290
that you can't be here today or tomorrow

01:42.290 --> 01:43.593
for their graduation.

01:44.630 --> 01:47.963
We sympathize, and we support you

01:47.963 --> 01:51.763
in your patriotism and your
support of your Marine.

01:52.610 --> 01:55.210
They're gonna need that
continued love and support

01:55.210 --> 01:56.780
as they continue on in their training.

01:56.780 --> 01:59.870
For tomorrow after graduation
they will leave here,

01:59.870 --> 02:02.770
the Depot, and they
will go up to SOI West,

02:02.770 --> 02:04.680
and then eventually
their follow on schools,

02:04.680 --> 02:06.080
and onto the Fleet Marine force,

02:06.080 --> 02:07.430
where they are much needed.

02:08.490 --> 02:11.820
Your love and support is
gonna be absolutely necessary

02:11.820 --> 02:14.860
for them to be successful
in their follow on training.

02:14.860 --> 02:17.580
So we wanna thank you
for that ahead of time.

02:17.580 --> 02:20.113
We wanna thank you for your
patience and your patriotism.

02:20.113 --> 02:22.280
We wish you and your families

02:22.280 --> 02:24.180
the best of luck during this pandemic.

02:25.160 --> 02:27.660
We wanna let you know that your Marines

02:27.660 --> 02:31.600
looked fantastic this morning
on the motivational run.

02:31.600 --> 02:36.250
They are healthy, they are
fit, they're determined,

02:36.250 --> 02:38.240
and they are ready to
take on the challenges

02:38.240 --> 02:41.363
of being a young Marine
in today's Marine Corps.

02:42.610 --> 02:46.250
Ladies and gentlemen, thank
you for joining us today.

02:46.250 --> 02:49.310
And you have the confidence
in your Marine Corps

02:49.310 --> 02:52.193
and we will always remain, Semper Fidelis.
