MICHAEL MINKLER:
This is really something. On behalf of my colleagues Myron Nettinga and Chris Munro, I 'd like to express how proud we are to be associated with this film and the very honorable men whose actions it depicts. And we extend our gratitude to all the men in the armed forces who are putting themselves at similar risks every day in order to ensure our freedoms. We owe this moment to the precision and passion of Ridley Scott, Pietro Scalia and Per Hallberg, and the leadership of Jerry Bruckheimer and Joe Roth at Revolution Studios. Personally, I believe that in everyone's life there's a person that takes you to another level and introduces you to greater possibilities. My wife has taken me and introduced me to the extraordinary. Thank you, Pattie.
