100 多名受邀嘉賓、退伍軍人和民選官員出席了周一在內華達州南部退伍軍人之家舉行的退伍軍人節儀式。

The keynote speaker was Gov. Joe Lombardo, who fought off gusty winds while holding down his written speech. Lombardo, an Army veteran, came to Nevada after his father was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base.

主講人是州長喬·隆巴多(Joe Lombardo)，他一邊頂著狂風，一邊按下了書面講話。隆巴多是一名退伍軍人，他的父親駐紮在內利斯空軍基地後來到內華達州。

“It’s such a great honor to be here today and stand before you to honor all of our veterans and inclusive of the veterans’ home here in Boulder City,” said Lombardo, who was elected in 2022.

2022 年當選的隆巴多 (Lombardo) 表示：“今天非常榮幸能夠來到這裡，站在你們面前向我們所有退伍軍人以及博爾德城退伍軍人之家致敬。”

He recognized and congratulated the four veterans at the home who, on Nov. 6, received the Korean War Ambassador of Peace Medal and the 14 who received the Korean War Guardian of Freedom coin from the Korean Consulate.

他認可並祝賀 11 月 6 日在家中獲得朝鮮戰爭和平大使獎章的四名退伍軍人，以及從韓國領事館獲得朝鮮戰爭自由衛士硬幣的 14 名退伍軍人。

“It is heartening to know those heroes are receiving the thanks and recognition they so greatly deserve,” he said. “Today is the day we show our gratitude and our pride to all the men and women who answered the call in service to our country. We also give thanks to those who signed their name on the dotted line and wore a uniform because they simply wanted to serve.”

他說：“得知這些英雄得到了他們應得的感謝和認可，真是令人振奮。” 「今天是我們向所有響應號召為國家服務的男女錶示感謝和自豪的日子。我們也要感謝那些在虛線上簽名並穿著制服的人，因為他們只是想服務。

Lombardo concluded by saying, “Anyone who took the time to put on a uniform and to serve our country should know this, you have helped to make this world a better place with your courage and sacrifice and dedication to our country.”

隆巴多最後說：“任何花時間穿上製服並為我們國家服務的人都應該知道這一點，你們透過你們的勇氣、犧牲和對我們國家的奉獻，幫助讓這個世界變得更加美好。”

Following the ceremony, Lombardo, as well as U.S. Senators Jacky Rosen and Catherine Cortez Masto, who attended but did not address the audience, stuck around, talking with attendees and taking pictures with them and many of the veterans in attendance. Boulder City’s Julie Rackey asked the governor to sign the back of her sweatshirt. He did, signing it, “Gov. J. Lombardo.”

儀式結束後，隆巴多以及出席但沒有向觀眾發表講話的美國參議員傑基·羅森和凱瑟琳·科爾特斯·馬斯托留在周圍，與與會者交談，並與他們和許多出席的退伍軍人合影。博爾德城的朱莉·拉基請求州長在她的運動衫背面簽名。他照做了，並在上面簽了字：「州長。 J·隆巴多。

“I tried to pull the sweatshirt as tight as possible to make it easier for him to sign,” she said, laughing.

「我試著把運動衫拉得盡可能緊，以便他更容易簽名，」她笑著說。

After the ceremony, Cortez Masto stopped to talk with the Review and was asked what the day meant to her.

儀式結束後，科爾特斯·馬斯托停下來接受《評論》採訪，並被問到這一天對她意味著什麼。

“As the daughter and granddaughter of veterans, it is so important that we continue to support the men and women who protect our freedoms and sometimes make the ultimate sacrifice,” she said. “We need to take care our veterans. It’s important that we not only recognize them on this day but every day.”

她說：“作為退伍軍人的女兒和孫女，我們繼續支持那些保護我們自由、有時甚至做出最終犧牲的男女，這一點非常重要。” 「我們需要照顧我們的退伍軍人。重要的是，我們不僅要在這一天，而且要在每一天都認識他們。
