When we talk about the military's service, everybody thinks about "military," but the key word is not military, the key word is "service." You give service to your nation, to the world, and you often do so during very difficult times. Heroes are not defined by the way they die; but rather by the way they live and what they do. You, our men and women in uniform, by your honor, courage and commitment, protect our nation's interests and, more importantly, our hopes and dreams. You consistently show the ability to adapt, change and transform to meet new threats to America. You are the foundation of our strength. You make us proud and keep us safe. Now, your service requires continued patience, determination, and resolve. We face a long war against terrorism. Projecting both offensive power and defensive capability, you are trained, educated, motivated and strong. You are ready to serve America anywhere, anytime, around the world and around the clock. United we stand, and together as a nation, we will prevail. 
Secretary England's Action Principle has been written for the forthcoming Armed Services Tribute Edition of the Action Principles.
