                               RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of Congress that all Americans should recognize 
  National Military Appreciation Month with appropriate programs and 
                              activities.

Whereas the success of the Armed Forces depends on the dedicated members of the 
        Armed Forces, their families, and all Department of Defense employees;
Whereas the dedication and sacrifice of all members of the Armed Forces, 
        especially during a time of multiple conflicts, has been influential to 
        the freedoms enjoyed by citizens of the United States;
Whereas support for the families of members of the Armed Forces greatly enhances 
        the abilities of those members during lengthy deployments;
Whereas the Government of the United States should encourage the citizens of the 
        United States to recognize the faithful dedication of service to 
        country;
Whereas the people of the United States should recognize the special trust and 
        confidence placed upon the members of the Armed Forces who represent the 
        principles of American democracy around the world;
Whereas the traditions and history of the Armed Forces should be recognized 
        through an annual National Military Appreciation Month;
Whereas May 2009 has been recognized as National Military Appreciation Month;
Whereas recognizing National Military Appreciation Month through events held 
        across the United States will maintain the morale and increase the 
        quality of life of members of the Armed Forces and their families; and
Whereas the people of the United States should celebrate National Military 
        Appreciation Month by attending national, cultural, and social awareness 
        events and by mass media attention and education: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that 
all Americans should recognize National Military Appreciation Month 
with appropriate programs and activities.
