During a two-day nationwide tour of military bases, President Johnson praises the "courage and conviction" of his fighting men and issues an invitation to meet Hanoi's leaders, "anytime, anywhere" even on "a neutral ship on a neutral sea." A crowd gathers outside MiConnell Air Force Bass to welcome the President. President Johnson shakes hands with fans. He is escorted through the crowd with the help of Secret Service Agents. Air Force jets fly in formation overhead. The president stands with military officers within an air craft carrier, and then on the ship's deck where a fighter takes off.
