Although the overwhelming majority of the Milky Way’s denizens will never know that their lives were saved by your heroic actions today, the significance of your accomplishments here cannot be understated. It is a rare and terrifying need to defend against a threat to the entire galaxy, but you all answered the frantic call to action and rose to the challenge to save trillions, but as a reminder, among those trillions are your families and loved ones. You saved them, and for that, I thank you.

I could not be more proud to have done this alongside all of you in this makeshift fleet, and it could not have been done without all of us working together. We are Starfleet, and this is one of many reasons we put on the uniform — to protect those who cannot protect themselves. Today, that mission was accomplished to a degree that may never have happened before or will ever happen again. History was made here, today, you made it, and future generations will live to study today’s events because of you.

Everyone that helped make this possible will be put forth for an award from the Federation Council, civilians alongside Starfleet. Thank you all, and as you return to your prior assignments, stand tall and proud, knowing that you contributed to our success this day. Harper out.
