                               RESOLUTION


 
Expressing the sense of the Senate that the Secretary of Defense should 
 consider establishing an award program for the cyber community of the 
                         Department of Defense.

Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Secretary of Defense should consider--
            (1) establishing an award program for employees of the 
        Department of Defense who carry out the cyber missions or 
        functions of the Department of Defense;
            (2) all award options under law or policy, including 
        compensation, time off, and status awards;
            (3) awards based upon operational impact and meritorious 
        service;
            (4) providing the largest possible opportunity for such 
        members or employees to earn such rewards without regard to 
        type of position, grade, years of service, experience or past 
        performance;
            (5) individual and organization rewards; and
            (6) other factors, as the Secretary considers appropriate, 
        that would reward and provide incentive to cyber personnel or 
        organizations.
                                 <all>
