US President Joe Biden and his wife Jill met met with Coast Guard service members on Thursday during Thanksgiving Day celebration in Nantucket, Mass.

Biden said: "What am I thankful for? I'm not joking when I say I'm thankful for these guys."

"Thankful for them and everybody - I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I've been all over the world, I've watched these people. I've watched them in the South China Sea, I've watched them in Afghanistan and Iraq, watching them in South America - wherever they are. People wonder what America is? They look and they see them - that's who they see. They don't see us here. They see them. And they make me proud..." Biden added.

"Service members and their families sacrifice so much to protect our freedoms and the freedom of others around the globe. While we can never fully repay the debt we owe these heroes, @FLOTUS and I called today to say how thankful we are for all they do," Biden tweeted.
