                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
Expressing the sense of the Congress that the United States flag flown 
 over the United States Capitol should be lowered to half-mast one day 
 each month in honor of the brave men and women from the United States 
            who have lost their lives in military conflicts.

Whereas more than 1,000,000 brave men and women from the United States have died 
        in military conflicts from the time of the Revolutionary War through 
        Operation Iraqi Freedom;
Whereas the people of the United States mourn the loss of the brave men and 
        women who have given their lives for this country;
Whereas the United States has not forgotten the sacrifices that brave men and 
        women have made to protect our Nation and our freedom; and
Whereas paying tribute to the brave men and women from the United States who 
        gave their lives for this Nation demonstrates the spirit of patriotism 
        that is the foundation of our great country: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring),  
That it is the sense of the Congress that the United States flag flown 
over the United States Capitol should be lowered to half-mast one day 
each month in honor of the brave men and women from the United States 
who have lost their lives in military conflicts.
