---

my congratulations.

- I will.

- Is Ms. Hollins there?

As a matter of fact, she is.

Let me have a word with her.

It's for you.

Hello?

Ms. Hollins, this is Leon Panetta.

- Hello, Mr. Panetta.

- Good work.

You called this a long time ago.

Oh, I appreciate it.

It's been a long journey.

Yes, it has, and you've

been a big part of it.

- Thank you so much.

- Thank you.

many moments in life

when you get to realize

that everything

you've sacrificed for a goal

was worth it.

Because that goal is so much...

...is so much bigger

and so much more important than...

...than any individual.

to the countless intelligence

and counter-terrorism professionals

who worked tirelessly

to achieve this outcome.

- The American people...

- Good work.

...do not see their work

nor know their names,

but tonight they feel the result.

We give thanks for the men

who carried out this operation,

for they exemplify the professionalism,

patriotism, and unparalleled courage

of those who serve our country,

and they are part of a generation

that has borne

the heaviest share of the burden

since that September day.

As a country,

we will never tolerate

our security being threatened,

nor stand idly by when

our people have been killed.

We will be relentless

in defense of our citizens.

We will be true to the values

that make us who we are.

And on nights like this one,

we can say to those families

who have lost loved ones

to Al-Qaeda's terror,

justice has been done.

looking into everyone's eyes,

you could see that none of this

had sunk in yet.

But then you remember

the thousands of people

across the world,

who sacrificed to get us here.

It was Skipper who took

them two women to the ground.

If they'd had a suicide vest,

he was gonna take the blast himself.

To protect us.

of people had their doubts.

If he was there,

if we could pull it off.

And the fact is that he was,

and we did.

It's a good day to be a SEAL.

It's...

It's a good day to be an American.
