Happy Veterans Day — to our best Americans.
The Hegseth’s are honored to celebrate our veterans this morning at Arlington with @POTUS, @VP & @SecVetAffairs.
Thank God for our warriors, past and present.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth retweeted
On this Veterans Day, we honor the warriors who proudly wore the uniform and served our great nation.
Today, I met with my Polish counterpart, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, at the Pentagon.
We discussed Poland’s leadership in NATO, including support of NATO 3.0 objectives, and signed a Statement of Intent on strengthening of defense industry cooperation.

.@SECWAR “Let’s be clear about what this resolution actually does.
It tells our enemies — Iran, the cartels, the Houthis, every adversary watching — that the United States will actually punish its own warfighters and its own civilian leadership for successfully executing lawful military operations.
It tells them that a single rogue legislator, loaded with personal animus for the President, can attempt to veto national security decisions made by the Commander-in-Chief.
It puts a target on the backs of American service members by signaling that Congress will undermine their missions in real time.
That is not patriotism. That is SABOTAGE."

“If they want to come for the warriors—they are going to have to come through me.”

To our warriors:
We will Stand.
We will Fight.
We will Defend the Republic.
I look forward to hosting @KhaledNordin at the Pentagon next year to advance interoperability and expand defense cooperation between @DeptofWar and @MINDEFMalaysia
Good to see @mindefsg at ADMM-Plus. The United States appreciates Singapore’s clear-eyed realism and commitment to support continued U.S. presence in the Pacific.
I had another meaningful exchange with Minister Giang as we continue to deepen defense cooperation.
We are committed to accounting for those still missing, united in honoring the fallen, and steadfast in recognizing the families whose loved ones never returned.
Productive meeting with counterparts from Australia, Japan, and the Philippines. Deterrence is built on real capability and ready partnerships.
We are moving beyond words to practical cooperation along the First Island Chain—bolstering readiness to ensure peace through strength.
I appreciated the opportunity to meet with Secretary Teodoro for the sixth time to discuss modernizing alliance C2, security cooperation, and deterrence in the South China Sea.
We are accelerating efforts to modernize @TeamAFP and enhance our interoperability along the First Island Chain.
