President Donald Trump praised the 10th Mountain Division during an Aug. 13 visit to Fort Drum, N.Y., and joked with the crowd.
“Nobody stands a chance against you folks,†Trump said to a packed house of soldiers who watched him sign the 2019 National Defense Authorization Act, a measure that includes a 2.6 percent raise, the biggest pay increase for the military in nine years.
“America will always rise to every challenge and overcome every danger, because we are backed by the strength and power of the American soldier,†Trump said, noting the bill he signed “will give America’s warfighters the firepower they need to win any conflict quickly and decisively.â€
