R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Throughout the history of this nation, in times of 
great peril, men and women of the United States military have 
marched bravely into battle to defend our precious liberties; and
	WHEREAS, A member of the 67th Armor Battalion, U.S. Army 
Soldier Christian Schulz embarked from Fort Hood in support of our 
nation's campaign to liberate Iraqi citizens from oppression; while 
working to keep the peace in Baqubah, he was killed while serving 
his country on July 11, 2003; and
	WHEREAS, A 2000 graduate of Colleyville Heritage High School, 
this courageous young man entered the Army in 2001 and was known for 
his enthusiasm and his ability to perform his duties with the utmost 
distinction; the beloved son of Bob and Emmy Schulz, he died for the 
hopes and dreams of men and women in this country, so that men and 
women in a faraway country could one day realize their hopes and 
dreams; and
	WHEREAS, Unflinching bravery and a resolute commitment to 
fulfill his oath to serve, regardless of the personal consequences, 
were demonstrated by this valorous American, who gave his life to 
preserve liberty; the State of Texas and the nation now mourn the 
loss of Christian Schulz: a soldier for a brief period, a hero 
forever; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby honor the life of Christian 
Schulz and extend deepest sympathy to his family: to his parents, 
Bob and Emmy Schulz; to his sister, Rebekah Schulz; and to his other 
relatives and many friends; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of 
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Christian 
Schulz.
