                               RESOLUTION


 
  Recognizing the Reserve Forces Policy Board on its 50th anniversary.

Whereas the Reserve Forces Policy Board represents members of the Guard and 
        Reserve as their advocate to the Secretary of Defense and Congress;
Whereas the Reserve Forces Policy Board must continue to provide to the civilian 
        and military leadership of the Department of Defense timely and 
        independent advice on matters pertaining to the Reserve components of 
        the Armed Forces; and
Whereas during the Persian Gulf War and again in the aftermath of the September 
        11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the Nation's reliance upon the Reserve 
        components has become increasingly clear: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives commends the Reserve 
Forces Policy Board, created by the Armed Forces Reserve Act of 1952 
(Public Law 82-476), on its 50th anniversary and for its fine work as 
an independent source of advice to the Secretary of Defense on all 
matters pertaining to the Reserve components of the Armed Forces.
                                 <all>
