U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth joined Sailors and Marines aboard the USS Boxer for an early morning physical training session before delivering a message on military readiness and Iran. Referring to President Donald Trump’s recent remarks, Hegseth said Iran could either pursue a diplomatic agreement or face the strength of America’s armed forces. Pointing to the troops around him, he emphasized that deterrence is built not by words alone but by the readiness of service members who train daily for potential missions.
