TRANSCRIPT ANALYSIS
On Tuesday, after more than seven years, the United States of America
will end its combat mission in Iraq and take an important step forward
in responsibly ending the Iraq war.
As a candidate for this office, I pledged I would end this war.  As
President, that is what I am doing.  We have brought home more than
90,000 troops since I took office.  We have closed or turned over to
Iraq hundreds of bases.  In many parts of the country, Iraqis have
already taken the lead for security.

On Tuesday, after more than seven years [Operation Shock and Awe],
the United States of America will end its combat mission in Iraq
[Operation New Dawn] and take an important step forward [The Power
of the Sun] in responsibly ending the Iraq war.
As a candidate for this office, I pledged I would end this war
[Premature Withdrawal seemed imminent during 2007].  As President,
that is what I am doing [The Year now is 2010].  We have [responsibly]
brought home more than 90,000 troops since I [Barack Hussein
Obama] took office.  We have closed or turned over to Iraq hundreds
of bases.  In many parts of the country, Iraqis have already taken the
lead for security [There are reports that Iraqis feel abandoned by the
US Army while threatened by the Shiite / Sunni Conflict].
OPERATION SHOCK AND AWE
OPERATION NEW DAWN

In the months ahead, our troops will continue to support and train Iraqi forces,
partner with Iraqis in counterterrorism missions, and protect our civilian and
military efforts.  But the bottom line is this: the war is ending.  Like any sovereign,
independent nation, Iraq is free to chart its own course.  And by the end of next
year, all of our troops will be home.
As we mark the end of America’s combat mission in Iraq, a grateful nation must pay
tribute to all who have served there.  Because part of responsibly ending this war is
meeting our responsibility to those who have fought it.

In the months [time not defined] ahead, our troops will continue to support [better
definition may be required] and train Iraqi forces [to reach and maintain safety
levels], partner with Iraqis in counterterrorism missions, and protect our civilian and
military efforts [thus protecting America’s Interests].  But the bottom line is this: the
war [Operation Iraqi Freedom] is ending.  Like any sovereign, independent nation,
Iraq is free to chart its own course.  And by the end of next year, all of our troops
will be [back] home.
As we mark the end of America’s combat mission in Iraq, a grateful
[American]nation must pay tribute to all who have served there.  Because part of
responsibly ending this war is meeting our responsibility to those who have fought it
[on our side].
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan now make up America’s longest continuous
combat engagement.  For the better part of a decade, our troops and their
families have served tour after tour with honor and heroism, risking and often
giving their lives for the defense of our freedom and security.  More than one
million Americans in uniform have served in Iraq – far more than any conflict since
Vietnam.  And more than one million who have served in both wars have now
finished their service and joined the proud ranks of America’s veterans.
What this new generation of veterans must know is this: our nation’s commitment
to all who wear its uniform is a sacred trust that is as old as our republic itself.  It is
one that, as President, I consider a moral obligation to uphold.

Freedom] now make up America’s longest continuous combat engagement.  For

our [America’s] freedom and security.  More than one million Americans in

Constitution reference].  It is one that, as President, I consider a moral obligation

At the same time, these are new wars; with new missions, new methods, and new perils.  And
what today’s veterans have earned – what they have every right to expect – is new care, new
opportunity, and a new commitment to their service when they come home.
That’s why, from the earliest days of my Administration, we’ve been strengthening that sacred
trust with our veterans by making our veterans policy more responsive and ready for this new
century.
We’re building a 21st century VA, modernizing and expanding VA hospitals and health care, and
adapting care to better meet the unique needs of female veterans.  We’re creating a single
electronic health record that our troops and veterans can keep for life.  We’re breaking the
claims backlog and reforming the process with new paperless systems.  And we are building
new wounded warrior facilities through the Department of Defense

they come home [As American Civilians].

But for many of our troops and their families, the war doesn’t end when they come
home.  Too many suffer from Traumatic Brain Injury and Post-Traumatic Stress
Disorder – the signature injuries of today’s wars – and too few receive proper
screening or care.  We’re changing that.  We’re directing significant resources to
treatment, hiring more mental health professionals, and making major investments in
awareness, outreach, and suicide prevention.  And we’re making it easier for a vet
with PTSD to get the benefits he or she needs.

To make sure our troops, veterans, and their families have full access to the
American Dream they’ve fought to defend, we’re working to extend them new
opportunity.  Michelle and Jill Biden have forged a national commitment to support
military families while a loved one is away.  We’ve guaranteed new support to
caregivers who put their lives on hold for a loved one’s long recovery.  We’re funding
and implementing the Post-9/11 GI Bill, which is already helping some 300,000
veterans and their family members pursue their dream of a college education.

Issue thus applied with Civilian means?].
And for veterans trying to find work in a very tough economy, we’ve devoted
new resources to job training and placement. I’ve directed the federal
government to hire more veterans, including disabled veterans, and I encourage
every business in America to follow suit. This new generation of veterans has
proven itself to be a new generation of leaders.  They have unmatched training
and skills; they’re ready to work; and our country is stronger when we tap their
extraordinary talents.
New care.  New opportunity.  A new commitment to our veterans.

And for veterans trying to find work in a very tough economy, we’ve devoted
new resources to job training and placement. I’ve directed the federal
government to hire more veterans [Can the veteran find or create a job of his /
her own?], including disabled veterans [Minimize possibility of unemployment],
and I encourage every business in America to follow suit [Hire VAs]. This new
generation of veterans has proven itself to be a new generation of leaders
[leaders being leaded?].  They have unmatched training and skills
[Advertisement when it comes to military honor code that can be safely applied
in Civil Life]; they’re ready to work; and our country is stronger when we tap
their extraordinary talents [Honor to Brothers and Sisters in Arms, Faith to
American Ideals, Respect to human beings].
New care.  New opportunity.  A new commitment to our veterans.

Let them know that they have the respect and support of a grateful nation.  That
when their tour ends; when they see our flag; when they touch our soil; they’ll
always be home in an America that is forever here for them – just as they’ve been
there for us.  That is the promise our nation makes to those who serve.  And as long
as I’m Commander-in-Chief, it’s a promise we’ll keep.  Thank you.
