    Jeremy Watson: "He's coming to give a big fancy speech to all of us troops stationed here at the dam. I'm pretty excited. He seems like such a nice guy and I get to meet him. He's giving me a medal. I don't know why though. I'm just doing my job like all the other guys. I'm still excited though."

  4. President Kimball: "When the republic called on the men and women of California to carry that fire across the Mojave, Jeremy Watson answered. You answered. Together, you carried the weight. And when PFC Watson's platoon came under attack at Forlorn Hope, he took the greatest risk, not only for his fellow Californians, but for California itself. He was prepared to make the most noble of sacrifices, to defend the principles of our republic, even here, on Nevada soil. His actions are a beacon to all of us who stand here today in tribute to his valor."
