奥巴马说：“只要我还是你们的统帅，我承诺我只会在绝对必要的时候才会把你们派遣到危险的地方。 而且我会给你们战略计划、明确的目标、设备以及你们完成任务所需要的支持。”

奥巴马说：“因为当美国人偏离我们的价值观念时，它不仅破坏了法治，我们的盟友也会孤立我们，给我们的对手更多能量，而危及到我们的国家安全和军队的生命。”

奥巴马还告诉美国海军学院的毕业生，美国必须克服各种各样的威胁，包括常规和非常规的。

"The nation-state and the terrorist network. The spread of deadly technologies and of hateful ideologies 12. Eighteenth-century-style piracy 13 and 21st century cyberthreats," he said.

奥巴马说：“像是国家和恐怖主义的网络，令人致命的科技和憎恨的意识形态的传播，十八世纪海盗风格和21世纪的网络威胁。”

The president said he has stopped budget reductions in the Navy, and is building up the Marine Corps. He also promised service members higher pay, better child care and other benefits.

奥巴马总统说，他已停止削减海军的预算，并加强建设海军陆战队。他还承诺提高军人的待遇，和给予军人小孩更好照料和其他福利。

Mr. Obama said he intends to "maintain America's military dominance."

One of Friday's graduates is the son of John McCain, Mr. Obama's opponent in last year's presidential election.

This is the last of the president's three commencement addresses this year, and his first at a military academy.
