  Recognizing the 54th anniversary of the start of the Korean War and 
        honoring the members of the United States Armed Forces.

Whereas June 25, 2004, is the 54th anniversary of the start of the Korean War;
Whereas nearly 6,000,000 members of the United States Armed Forces served in the 
        Korean War;
Whereas more than 53,000 members of the Armed Forces died during the Korean War;
Whereas many members of the Armed Forces served in both World War II and the 
        Korean War;
Whereas 2004 has been called the year of the soldier;
Whereas the United States has recently honored the veterans of World War II and 
        celebrated the 60th anniversary of D-Day;
Whereas members of the Armed Forces are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan; and
Whereas the people of the United States should never forget the sacrifices made 
        by veterans and members of the Armed Forces currently engaged in 
        conflict: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) recognizes the 54th anniversary of the start of the 
        Korean War; and
            (2) honors the members of the United States Armed Forces.
