Let me begin by thanking Ash Carter, our Secretary of Defense, General Joe Dunford, Vice Chair Paul Selva, and

首先，我要感謝國防部長 Ash Carter、上將 Joe Dunford、副主席 Paul Selva，

The purpose of this meeting, something I do on a regular basis, is to allow me to hear directly from those who are charged with the most solemn responsibility of maintaining the finest fighting force that the world has ever known and keeping the American people safe.

這次會議的目的是，我定期都會召開，讓我有機會直接聽取那些肩負著維持世界上最精銳戰鬥部隊、保護美國人民安全這項最神聖責任的人的意見。

It is in these meetings that we have been able to set broad strategy, identify areas where we have to improve, address the health of the force.

在這些會議中，我們得以制定廣泛戰略，找出需要改進的領域，並處理部隊健康的問題。

And I can say to the American people that they are extraordinarily lucky.

我可以告訴美國人民，他們非常幸運。

And I am extraordinarily lucky to be served by such extraordinary patriots.

而我能被這些傑出的愛國者服務，我也感到非常幸運。

這將是我與他們的最後一次會議。

And so part of my goal here is just to say thank you and let them know how much I appreciate the counsel, the advice, the leadership that they have consistently shown throughout my time in office.

是以，我今天的目標之一就是表達感謝，讓他們知道在我任職期間，他們一直展現的諮詢、建議和領導力，我有多麼感激。

But in addition to saying thank you, I will get their views on the fact that we still have a lot of active threats around the world, and

但除了感謝之外，我還會聽取他們對我們全球仍有許多活躍威脅的看法，以及

we still have men and women in harm's way around the world who are busy protecting our homeland and our vital interests and our allies.

我們仍有許多男女在世界各地身處危險之中，他們正忙著保護我們的家園、關鍵利益以及盟友。

And we've got to make sure that during this transition period that there is a seamless passing of the baton, that there's continuity, and

我們必須確保在這個過渡時期，權力能夠無縫地交接，保持連續性，

obviously, we still have major fights against ISIS in Mosul and in Syria.

顯然，我們在摩蘇爾和敘利亞仍與ISIS進行著重大戰鬥。

That in all of these areas, we are doing everything we can to make sure that the next president will benefit from the same kinds of outstanding advice and service that these people around the table have provided me.

在所有這些方面，我們正竭盡所能，確保下一任總統能從這些在座各位提供的傑出建議和服務中受益。

So it has been, as I've said repeatedly, one of the greatest honors and privileges of being president, serving as Commander in Chief to such outstanding people.

正如我一再說過的，能夠擔任總統，以三軍統帥的身分服務於如此傑出的人們，是我最大的榮幸和殊榮之一。

And I couldn't have done it without all of you.

And I know that my optimism about America going forward is in part because we have such an amazing military, not only one that knows how to fight, but

我知道我對美國未來的樂觀，部分原因在於我們擁有一支令人驚豔的軍隊，他們不僅懂得如何作戰，

also knows how to uphold the values of rule of law and professionalism and integrity and recognizes our constitutional structure and maintains strict adherence and respect for civilian authority and democratic practices in determining how we use the awesome force of the American military.

更懂得如何維護法治、專業精神和誠信的價值觀，並認識到我們的憲政架構，嚴格遵守並尊重文人統治和民主實踐，來決定我們如何運用美國軍隊的強大力量。

So I just want to say thank you to all of you.

所以，我只想謝謝你們所有人。

說到這裡，我們還有一些工作要做。
