                               RESOLUTION


 
Honoring the United States Army Volunteer Reserve for its dedicated and 
distinguished service to veterans and communities in need in the United 
                                States.

Whereas the United States Army Volunteer Reserve (USAVR) continues its primary 
        mission of rendering final military honors to the families of deceased 
        veterans and has to date rendered more than 5,000 final military honors 
        services at no cost to the families or taxpayers;
Whereas the USAVR continues to work with and train other military and veterans 
        organizations in rendering final military honors;
Whereas the USAVR is working in conjunction with military and civil authorities 
        in the training and preparation for their secondary mission of being a 
        force structure multiplier in civil emergencies and mass casualty 
        situations through individual and organizational civic emergency 
        management training;
Whereas the USAVR has provided no-cost wellness care to disadvantaged or 
        homeless persons; and
Whereas the USAVR continues to flourish due to its enlightened leadership and 
        the dedication of its members: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives recognizes and honors 
the USAVR for its dedicated and distinguished service to veterans and 
communities in need in the United States.
