H. Res. 1294

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                          May 11, 2010.
Whereas the bomb and mine disposal profession was created in April 1941;
Whereas members of Explosive Ordnance Disposal organizations perform a dangerous 
        and selfless task often without recognition, risking their lives on 
        behalf of the United States;
Whereas the United States will forever be in debt to personnel in the profession 
        of explosive ordnance disposal for their bravery and sacrifice in times 
        of peace and war;
Whereas people in the United States should express their recognition and 
        gratitude for members of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal profession; and
Whereas the first Saturday in May would be an appropriate date to observe as 
        National Explosive Ordnance Disposal Day: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the designation of 
National Explosive Ordnance Disposal Day to honor those who are serving and have 
served in the noble and self-sacrificing profession of Explosive Ordnance 
Disposal in the United States Armed Forces.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
