Excerpt from Report to the Nation: The American Preparation for War
We have been at war for more than a month. American soldiers and marines have fought at Wake Island, Guam, Midway, and the Philippines. The Navy has gone into action in the Atlantic and over the broad stretches of the Pacific. There have been defeats. But this much our small forces on our island outposts have demonstrated: We have an Army and a Navy that can fight.
It is only the beginning. In his address to Congress on the State of the Union, the President said that American sea, air, and land forces will take stations in the British Isles. They will be protecting the Western Hemisphere. They will be operating throughout the Far East, and on all of the seven oceans.
