In his inspirational inaugural address, President John F. Kennedy stated, “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.”

Knowing that defending freedom wasn’t easy, JFK encouraged Americans “to ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.”
