H.R. No. 1260
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Many young men and women from the Lone Star State
volunteered their service during the course of World War II, and it
was the willingness of these fine citizens to make any sacrifice
necessary for the cause of liberty that enabled our country to
survive with the many freedoms we cherish today still intact; and
WHEREAS, This year marks the 60th anniversary of the
conclusion of this momentous conflict, and the victory that was so
dearly bought by the members of our armed services and other Allied
forces remains to many the single most significant event of the 20th
century; and
WHEREAS, On April 3, 2005, a ceremony was held by the City of
San Antonio and the U.S. Department of Defense to honor those whose
courageous efforts helped to secure final victory for their nation;
and
WHEREAS, History has shown repeatedly that our democracy is
only as strong as those valiant individuals on whom we rely to
protect it; the sacrifices of the men and women who served in World
War II remain undiminished by the passage of time, and it is fitting
that they be honored as we commemorate the 60th anniversary of the
conclusion of World War II; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
Legislature hereby pay homage to the brave U.S. soldiers who
defended this nation during World War II.
