In company with our brave Allies and brothers-in-arms on other Fronts, you will bring about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world.

We will accept nothing less than full Victory! Good luck! And let us beseech the blessing of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking.

All free peoples are deeply impressed by the courage and steadfastness of the Greek nation.

No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people, in their righteous might, will win through to absolute victory.

They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest-until the victory is won.

Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein we never had a defeat.
