                               RESOLUTION


 
Recognizing the service, professionalism, honor, and sacrifices of the 
   Navy SEALs and their contribution to the national security of the 
     United States, supporting the mission of the Navy SEALs, and 
 encouraging the people of the United States to learn the history and 
                       mission of the Navy SEALs.

Whereas the members of the naval special operations forces, known as ``Navy 
        SEALs'' because they are able to operate in sea, air, and land, bravely 
        serve in combat operations around the world in support of the global war 
        on terrorism;
Whereas the Navy SEALs are the critical element of the special operations 
        capability of the United States and have retained the highest standard 
        of loyalty, honor, and duty since their origin as Navy frogmen during 
        World War II;
Whereas the Navy SEALs are unmatched in their tactical proficiency and full-
        spectrum capability on the battlefield; and
Whereas the Navy SEALs have made the greatest of sacrifices in the line of duty 
        and repeatedly demonstrate their dedication and readiness to continue to 
        make those sacrifices on behalf of the United States: Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) recognizes the service, professionalism, honor, and 
        sacrifices of the Navy SEALs and their contributions to the 
        national security of the United States;
            (2) supports the mission of the Navy SEALs in the global 
        war on terrorism; and
            (3) encourages the people of the United States to learn the 
        history and mission of the Navy SEALs.
