TUSKEGEE AIRMEN--HONORING
NOTE: May 10, 2005 -  [H.Con.Res.26]
Whereas the United States is currently combating terrorism around the
world and is highly dependent on the global reach and presence
provided by the Air Force;

Whereas these operations require the highest skill and devotion to duty
from all Air Force personnel involved;

Whereas the Tuskegee Airmen proved that such skill and devotion, and not
skin color, are the determining factors in aviation;

Whereas the Tuskegee Airmen served honorably in the Second World War
struggle against global fascism; and

Whereas the example of the Tuskegee Airmen has encouraged millions of
Americans of every race to pursue careers in air and space
technology: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring),
That it is the sense of Congress that the United States Air Force should
continue to honor and learn from the example provided by the Tuskegee
Airmen as it faces the challenges of the 21st century and the war on
terror.

Agreed to May 10, 2005.
