**Video transcript** (7:07), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome World War II hero, William Packrell. Thank you very much. My name is Bill Packrell, I'm a proud Wisconsinite, proud -- I'm a proud husband of 76 years old and my wife Rosemary. I'm a father of 11 children, six girls, five boys. Our family across five generations and a proud World War II veteran. I'm 98 years old, some call us the greatest generation. That's an honor considering America is the greatest nation in the history of the world. I will never forget and witness the horror of the Nazis war camps. From the Battle of the Bulge, my friends and I fought to stop the Nazis last major portion of the Western Front. If you went later, Hitler was dead, the Nazis were defeated. And we gave thanks to Almighty God for delivering us from evil. But not many of us came home. I still miss a lot of my friends on that beach. There were many of us left, there aren't many of us left today. But for us, those of us who are here, that America is still worth fighting for. It hurts my heart to see what our current president and vice president have done to the country I loved so well. They humiliated us in Afghanistan. We pushed around in China, terrorists from wild in the Middle East, and they let our own southern border get overrun. America, people say, America is an idea, but I believe America is much more than that. America is our home. You know, when I was fighting in Europe and I came back home, I kissed a girl, thanking God that I'm back home in my country. And where I come from, when somebody comes for me or my home, you dig in your boots and the ground and never look back. That's the attitude that saved the free world both years ago. And President Trump, back in Commander-in-Chief, I would go back to the re-enlist today, and I would storm whatever beach my country wanted me to, by the time God bless you, God bless your home and the United States of America.
