Right now, America's warfighters are on duty.
Missileers are underground - a powerful, responsive deterrent. Bomber crews are ready - a versatile, proven advantage. Submariners are underway - a silent, constant presence. Command and support teams are watching - a vigilant, credible asset.
They are professionals, all. They stand ready. They do not stop, and they never will.
#USSTRATCOM. New year. Same mission.
