Donald Trump has unveiled a new campaign video paying tribute to the U.S. military, in what he insisted were his 'real words' - unlike, he has insisted, quotes disparaging the troops reported in the Atlantic.

The new video, tweeted by the president on Wednesday evening, features a montage of scenes showing Trump thanking and commemorating military figures.

Entitled 'Valor', the video scrolls through clips of Trump paying his respects at a military ceremony and presenting medals to elderly veterans. Active duty troops are filmed in soft-focus, while families embrace their military relative.

Heroes in history wore many mantles; acting as protectors of their people and role models.
Military prowess while important was paramount only for some.
